This tree stump is the closest our garden has to a piece of sculpture. I love it and have a lot of photographs of it, taken at different times of the year. These three were all taken in 2007 and show the gradual onset of winter.

The middle one reminds me of British costume dramas, when they spray artificial snow around in an unconvincing attempt to make it look like a real winter.
Here's one from 24 January 2008, looking at it from the other side. According to the weather station records it was -9°C/16°F at 11.45am when I took this photo. Brrr.
What does this piece of wood make you think of?

Indeed it is very beautiful - so very beautiful, if ever you found yourselves hard up you could probably sell it for enough to keep you going a few years.

It makes me think that I wish I lived in a place that got really cold in the winter! :) I love your progression of seasons, have always loved pictures that do that.
I think it looks like an Elfin Ruler in a winter wonderland. And no, I am not on hallucinogenic drugs. haha
A dancer pirouetting.
Love the Nov. 22 one :)
Blacksmith's anvil?
Here's a very British one...
Looks to me like a side view of a fossilised Davros
In the last photo it reminds me of a wood nymph looking out over the garden.
Hmmm, makes me think of something left over from a Lord of the Rings film set.
The middle photo reminds me of the wedding scene at the end of the Colin Firth/Jennifer Ehle BBC Pride & Prejudice - spray can snow all around.
