I thought that this tree looked like it was dressed in camouflage. I think the peeling of the bark occurs naturally because there are many trees on the golf course like this. It looks like Terry's woodpeckers have been busy, too.
Those trees have much to recommend them. The fragrant arome and unusual leaves area also interesting. Eucalyptus seems to have a very diverse distribution on area; lots of them in the Bay area. Nicely exposed, great detail without the blown highlights so easily done..,
Love it, Cindy - great eye. I don't think woodpeckers would like this though - eucalyptus trees wouldn't taste so good :)

lt does indeed look like camouflage . Would make a pleasant abstract with just the treetrunk, l think. Maybe turned horizontal. You have a sharp eye for design, Cindy.
