Hi Gerard

How did you get there? When we toured SWA did not reach it due to lack of fuel!

Hola Gerard

Vaya no conocía lo que informas del bosque petrificado, no tenia conocimiento de ello. Lo que pasa es que si no lo dices, no me hubiera dado cuenta ya que si no lo tocas no se aprecia.
Una interesante y original imagen. Buena explicación

Un saludo de Antonio

Hi Gerard,
I like this view, because of these natural colours. It's maybe a "simple" view, but it has something what makes you feel interested in it. Great sharpness.
Have a nice weekend,

Bonjour Gerard,

At first sight i've thought that this is a deadwood, when i read your title i am really surprised that this is a fossilesed one! Great finding and also perfectly captured from a very effective POV.
TFS and have a nice night/weekend!
Cheers,

Bayram

Hi Gerard.
The texture of this large timber is good. It ir amazing how it remains so strong after long being dead.
Thanks for sharing and have a wonderful weekend.

Une parfaite illustration de ces troncs pétrifiés qui ont un âge qui nous donne le vertige. Fascinant!! Une très belle image aussi par sa lumière et sa netteté. Un grand merci!
Bonne fin de semaine

Hello Gerard,

An eye catching presentation of this almost fossilized trunk of a tree. Very good details and DOF which has really opened the splendid mute history of the hidden past.
Thanks for showing us this rare subject,
Regards,
Srikumar
