This is really a old branch lying alongside a pathway, with a little creative lighting.

Which I would almost call an Abstract.

What would you call it?

Very nice shot, Stu. The branches were random and free with interesting light. You did well!

Thanks James
It was a nice, although short walk. I'll post a few more nature shots from it sometime soon.

I think it's a pretty cool shot. I thought the branch would be much bigger until I saw the pine needle draped on the bottom branch.

It has a Tim Burtonesque feel to it Stu. the pine needle could be one of his creatures, with the dark background it looks like it is standing there rather than hanging on the branch.
