The Cruciform Tree

Another shot of what I call the Cruciform Tree. This tree is a sculpture of nature. It is situated in Malta, vicinty of Rabat on the main road leading to it from the direction of Attard.

I posted this one in addition th my previous BW shot because it shows the actual tree better I think. Just to prove to you its a real tree :)

The below is a link to the BW image.

There are absolutely no manipulations in this shot. Just the standard tweaking of colour and levels.

The Cruciform Tree belongs to the following groups:

    The twisted tree makes a wonderful subject and I don’t know if it’s my imagination but the form of christ on the cross seems to be so evident to me in it Astrid, well captured indeed,

    As I commented the first time there was no description on the image but now i see it and it’s not my imagination after all.

    I thought this was a bit more evident than my first version Marie. Sometimes it can be a little hard for people who have not witnessed this tree to believe it’s real!

    VERY Cool Tree, tho…surprising it hasn’t become a ’ worshiping tree’,
    visited by millions of people each day! SSshsshh…don’t
    tell anyone where it is!! (And GET that cooking or heater-thing away from it!)
    Excellent find and shot, and great enhancing
    in black and white!! C. Lou
    P.S…I’m just realizing.. You took 1st Place(?) in one of your Groups??
