The beauty of decay



Ferns and moss grow over the fallen trees in the swampy area in Gower Hey Woods.

Can you spot the squirrel?

A contribution to the CDPB theme day The beauty of decay and The Weekend in Black and White.

  17. I would like to be able to see the original photograph without the processing, Gerald, as a comparative thing. I did see the squirrel and I do very much like the damp (and dank) smells of a forest floor, especially when combined with a swamp.

    Thank you for your contribution to our Theme Day.
