18th Annual Smithsonian Magazine Photo Contest Altered Images
Water or Tree Bark?

It was a rainy day in Colorado and I came across a beautiful tree, I wondered why people don't take more pictures of the bark, they curve in so many ways. I wanted the person who saw this photo to be able to interpret it themselves and question whether it looked more like a river or steam, or if it was in fact a tree.
