Skin of a tree
Photographer's Statement:
The tree’s bark is falling off in pieces, resembling the way dry skin flakes away from the body. The process of shedding bark is a natural occurrence in trees, often caused by growth or environmental factors, and is crucial for the tree’s health and survival.
