Vines

It’s a bit confusing to see what’s going on here, looking at just this image. When I stood in front of this tree, it was pretty clear - a bunch of vines circling the tree’s trunk. It didn’t look like a death grip but it also didn’t look like a warm embrace.

And that’s where I ended up - not sure exactly what I was looking at - not sure in the sense of the why rather than the what. I have no training in botany so I’m not surprised that I’m a bit lost. And I actually don’t mind. It gives me license to imagine my own explanation.

Honestly, I didn’t come up with anything more profound than “boy, what a lovely collection of textures!” And I’m content to leave it at that. Not everything has to be really deep.
