Photo Hunt #71: Broken

12 Feb

Last winter while on a day trip to Lake Tahoe (mainly a day of shooting), I stumbled upon these “broken” trees/trunks, and I immediately thought Photo Hunt. Of course I was thinking of themes like snapped , sad, or lonely, etc. 

Finally, the wait has paid off.  There is a theme where I can use these images.

Photo Hunt is a weekly meme hosted by TNCHICK. Please join us in the hunt.

    Excellent photos! Nature in decline or dead can be as attractive as nature in full bloom! Happy weekend

    I’ve always thought trees like this make great pictures. However, unlike you, I never think ahead! 🙂

    I love the first image. Looks like two separate trees, broken and still together! Perfect for Valentine’s Day.

    These are really neat…they look like giant antlers. I love the essence of life which remains in that which is no more~

    I am so late to check this entry. You had a very interesting entry. In a way, this reminded me of my playmates in gradeschool. Pinaglalaruan namin yung mga natumbang puno, pagkatapos ng bagyo.
