I am reminded of dragon skin, or some kind of skin on something reptilian.

The colours are pretty fascinating here, just because there are so many different colours all blending and working together to make this what it is. One has to wonder what made those colours, and how those colours came to be.

I think a square would look great, but then we'd miss oout on the rest of the colours and colour movement, like how it goes from blue to green at the top.

You and your squares man You know you were there when I took this shot right? I bet you can't recall from where without cheating...
With the colors, I just amped up the saturation and that's what was hidden there all along, unbeknownst to our human eyes

I sort of remember, but sort of don't.

That's pretty awesome, that the colours were hiding there all along, unbeknownst to human eyes.

Maybe that's what a fly sees.

No, I invented it I think it should be called that way hehe.

Me, too. Well, I've never had much of a thing for plants and then suddenly, when the universe strikes me with a quarter of a century of knowledge (aka turning 25) I'm OBSESSED with flowers and plants. Some I can name in latin, english and german.

No, I invented itΒ 

That's quiteΒ Shakespearean of you

Β Some I can name in latin, english and german.

I wish I could do the same, though I wonder if it'd be better to know three times the number of plants rather than knowing three ways to say each plant name

Better Shakespearean than Columbus-esque.

Yep, I definitely think so, too. I'd rather know more plants than being able to name them in more than one language. But the latter just comes from googeling. Through google I know their Latin and German name and once I look them up in pinterest the English one pops up and it often sticks. it's the internet

I suppose it's better to invent words rather than countries It's kind of messed up that you have to look up stuff in English on Pinterest and can't stick to your native German (though it's fun to imagine you as a native Latin speaker). I guess the English speaking world produces the most trolls and spammers...

Very old tree?

What makes you think it was an old tree?Β 
But I imagine it was a dead tree, had toppled over some time ago if I remember right

The green things and the crack gap looks pretty big.
I usually see greyish dead trees.

I always thought the type of the tree determined the nature of the bark...but it seems logical to assume that older the tree the more wrinkly it is - as I'm all too aware

I think the green might be moss that started growing on itΒ
