I love all the rincles on this tree Eleftheria, well framed too. The soft brown give it the extra touch, bravo.

Hi Eleftheria and thank you for your nice comment to my picture! I also want to commend you for your nice tree. Funny how different trees can be in this world. I think you are amazing, taking so many wonderful pictures at such a young age. I'm sure you will become a professional photographer when you get older. Greetings from the north and Sweden.

@liaso: It is an old abandoned house in a ghost village, destroyed from an earthquake.

Wow!!! Don't I love this sculptured trunk!!!! We don't have olives here, but we have plum/apricot trees that can compete with the olive trees in being as gnarled and sculptural!And then the cherry trees, which, when old, have very impressive trunks!Well seen and captured!

My eyes were drawn to the tree trunk. It made me think of a couple hugging each other. The whole scene was captured and composed so well. I am extremely impressed with all of your compositions as well as your captures. I know one day you will be a well-known photographer!

Amazing tree. Imagine the stories it could tell. You have quite the eyes into the soul of things for one so old and young. Have a wonderful life, child.
