Monrovia Train Depot - Raised View


The reason for taking this photo was to experiment with getting a shot from a higher than normal viewpoint.  That also allowed me to eliminate most of the perimeter chain link fence from the photo.  That part worked out okay, but shooting into the sun was a mistake.  So, just for fun, I applied a little bit of an oil painting filter and then converted to black and white.

Knots In A Tree Stump


Looking straight down into a decayed tree stump.  Those things that look like spikes are the knots.  They've lasted longer than the wood around them and have been revealed pointing to the center of the stump.

h/t: Ed, Suzi, Doug for finding this.
