You got a fine view of the inside. Now, just WHAT is hiding in there? The ferns and leaves give a good idea of how large this is. Nice work with the colors. Keep up the good work! :-)

Beautiful shot... whos in there :)

Who's in there? Maybe I can get RodS to send the girls over there for a look-see:-)

A brilliant image and a wonderful habitat Bill.

Super shot, I think its a fairy place. Although I have just watched Stranger Things, there was something like this on there where the baddies were xx

Ooh I love magical places like this. I can imagine all sorts of people living in there lol. A beautiful clear capture. 😀

What a delight! I can imagine a whole family of beings in there.

nice one

Very enchanting.

This looks like a portal to Fae Valley
great find

Nice maelstrom of patterns and textures here in this cool Fuji foto, replete with fronds and leaves. Reminds me of a waterfall towards the left. And, a troll definitely lives in that deep dark hollow.

Well that does it. I just have to start commenting earlier. Everyone already took all my lines! If this were a movie of a certain genre this would be a portal to another world. A really well done image. Great color, light and texture.

Looks like an exciting place to take some shots. Love this capture.

Superb capture Bill. God bless.

it is supporting so much life. nature does a better job of reclaiming decaying things.

I think I see one of Mike's Faes peeking out! A wonderful shot, Bill!

beautiful

You wrote "Our old stump is a mere shell of its old self". Is this in LARC? Is this on your grounds? You said "our" like this was on your property...Well wherever it is, the contrast of bright light on the 'frames' of this opening, with the deep dark in the hollow, is beautiful. You really caught the feeling of looking into a deep, dark cavern. A hollow. The detail inside is beautiful. And you captured/cropped it so that some branches are hanging down into the pic, from above: Beautiful; like several bangs on a human. (Gang bangs. I just thought of that...god I'm witty!) And the 'frames' for the hollow---ie, the two big chunks of wood, far left and right, make a grand doorway to this mysterious recessed space. You caught its essence. A beautiful, rich photo of a mini-world. With wonderful light. Gives life to the myth of the forest primeval...

(Bill, I'm skipping around in your gallery: s I told Tara, I write long and slow, and the slow part is as inhibiting as the long, because it takes me a long time to do one of these comments. So covering every image I haven't commented on, during an absence, is impossible. So I try to get a representative sample. Just know that I see everything, and sit with everything. I don't miss an upload, despite my less thorough commenting.
