Tree Monster

This is a very old Beech tree at the Planting Fields in Oyster Bay NY. I didn't notice the monster like face until I started processing the image. Shot with an infrared converted Nikon D100 and a 10.5 mm fisheye. I used one of the Topaz filters to accentuate the knarly trunk and add some faux colors. As always, comments much appreciated.

Another great one Steve. Tree monsters are hard to capture on film. :toast:
