Ouch!! Looks like sort of petrified Hershey Kisses! How is it that you've come up right beside a pier shot? #1410031

Wow! Amazing detail in these sharp points Donna. Great macro! #9686908

That's a facinating close-up look, Donna. It becomes almost alien from this macro perspective. #9707763

Nice entry for the theme. #9707818

Nikki McDonald level-classic October 01, 2011

I'm thinking a combination of the comments. I can see petrified Hershey kisses, waves of thorns, and an alien landscape. Cool look at this strange tree, Donna. #9708810
