Description
This is a shot from the 4th of July weekend when several of us spent a day up at a friend's camping spot. It's a very ordinary woodpile, of the sort that gets burned for late night conversations and toasting marshmallows for s'mores. I am mindful of the fact that not everyone lives here, and that this might seem exotic to those of you in other climes, so I'm posting it even though I look at it and think, "ehhh ... whatever ... it's a woodpile."
This is also the last shot in my "ready to post" file that isn't of Chicago, so I either need to get busy and work up a variety of images, or just bombard you with one picture after another after another of Chicago! Lord knows, I've got plenty of 'em. :D
......
Oh look! I noticed after I posted that this is image #1111 in my gallery. I could have lined some of those logs up and ... oh never mind. :P

Nice; I like the logs, but I REALLY like the ferns around them!
love the logs and what they represent! Congrats on 1111! I do love the ferns as well
Fantastic shot! I think the ferns make the woodpile more appealing. :)
real cool looking
Wood look chard, Awesome shot :)
Very nice.............the evening smoke, the crackling and the s'mores make e want to come right over
I noticed the 1111 even before I noticed this gorgeous image! It certainly brings back memories of fires bruning late at night, the soft humming of voices... oh, don't get me started! Wonderful image Dierbaar!!! :)
OK, so what kind of wood is that...only kidding! Image + verbal setting = comfortable evening with good friends. Excellent. By the way, you can show me Chicago day in and day out...next to none of us has seen the street scenes, the architecture, the haunts that you all haunted...it is all good.
Lovely wood pile! I like the detail of the log on top. As a kid, I never cared much for marshmellows, I still only like them very roasted or dissolved in cocoa, and s'mores always seemed a waste of good chocolate to me. My mother always kept an eagle eye on the chocolate supply when we went camping. Great capture! Congrats on 1111.
Any woodpile is a rich gift for me---I know just what you mean. As for Chicago, well, bring it on!!
very fine shot.
Well I've seen woodpiles and ferns and trees but the way you present this image invites one to take a walk in the woods. Mmmm...I can smell the fresh air already.
I think I would have done close-ups of log ends or bark, or maybe shots of those wonderful ferns.
late night burning fire on a romantic place .. this is great shot - also wonderful with the ferns behind the logs ..
Excellent shot of a woodpile. :-))) I am ready to view all shot from Chicago you might post :-)))
Ha ha - too late now! You could still get the first three 1s but making a 2 would be a bit tough! Any woodpile is a potential diamond - you just need a bit of time (a few million years) and pressure (the weight of half a mountain).
WOW! I wonder how many woodlice have scampered around under this impressive pile! Yeah, for me it IS exotic, being a Chicago-native, we don't get to see much of this kind of stuff unless we leave the city! Great light and color, and yeah, I DO find myself wondering just how many woodlice one could find in this pile, especially if there's dampness. Gorgeous work!
I can see several little splashes of fungi in there, and you HAVE got the 1111 just under the top horizontal log! What impresses me most, however, is that you have a 'ready to post' file! Gosh! that is probably a very good idea!
Belle provision de lumière et de chaleur
nice light and composition
I see a 1111 in that pile too! Should have been nunmber 1111 last week Wednesday! Cheers, Clive
great pic!!
Lovely thought sitting round a log fire but this weather we have to make do with the log burner inside. Great picture.
Wow!!! i wish i could just take a vacation to your clime. Nice composition, and nice pile of ones...1111
WONDERful!!!!!!!!!!
A great looking wood pile and they would make an excellent 1111. Maybe there was a subliminal reason for you posting this one.
Cool woodpile. :-) gotta love a "potentially" warm shot. LOL
With all those cracks in the wood, it is ready to burn and the tree behind the wood pile looks like it will be next years woodpile. Wonderful perspective. Dana
the colors are so fresh wonderful capture smiles warm hugs and love, Linda Kaye
bet it was a great time!!
