Bark-ing up the wrong tree
View allAll Photos Tagged barked
The bark on a London plane tree has a distinctive gray mottled appearance that develops when it exfoliates, revealing white, brown, and creamy yellow colors. This distinctive camouflage pattern makes it easy to identify a London plane tree from a distance.
The bark of the planetree sheds because of the tree’s rapid growth. The thin bark doesn’t expand as quickly as the tree, and large flakes of bark drop off every year.
Hello my amazing Flickr friends !
Today is a black and white day at Color my World Daily and we celebrate Sliders Sunday. Since I had so much fun taking pictures for the tree bark theme at Looking close on Friday, I decide to add one more photo on this subject. As you can see, this is a whole picture of my tree bark pencil. They are super cool as photo props but unfortunately, those are a pain in the a**ss to sharpen. The wood (honestly I don’t even know if those are made from real wood … or some kind of Chinese magic super resistant wood look alike plastic…) is super hard and I even tried to use an exacto knife and it was almost impossible to cut… However, my pencils are here to stay since they make such an awesome props.
Have a beautiful day ! Mucho, mucho amor for you all !!
FYI: because of my renovation project I have to, constantly, move our stuff from one room to another on a very short notice !! So once again, I have to apologize for not answering your comments… I will try to catch up very shortly but for the next few days I’m afraid I will be M.I.A. (missing in action) !!!
Thank you so much for all your lovely comments / favs/ general support / happy thoughts!! Stay safe and well!!
Hello my amazing Flickr friends !
Today is a blue day at Color my World Daily and the theme at Looking close on Friday is tree bark. Tree bark brings back so many memories from my childhood. My Dad use to make any kind of tiny constructions for my sister and I to play with. We were very impressed with his skills. He had this tiny pocket knife and each time he got his hands on some old tree bark, he would make something awesome for us. I have a very vivid memory of a very, very elaborate (keep in mind he only had his tiny pocket knife to work with, no other tools or glue !) tree bark boat, it was made with several pieces and was big enough for our dolls to fit in and sail the seven seas…We played with that boat for days. So each time I see a piece of tree bark, I think about my Dad, the boat builder and the day dreamer… My Dad is like a tree, keeping our family together…giving away his bark just so his children and grandchildren can sail trough life safely and peacefully.
Have a beautiful day ! Mucho, mucho amor for you all !!
And just in case if you wonder: the tree bark in my picture is actually a wooden pencil. I could not resist buying those very cool looking but almost unusable (too hard to sharpen) tree bark pencils.

Bark beetles have killed most of the local pine trees over the last years. In the small white boxes on the ground new trees are planted.
In my dreams. Creative edit of a Eucalyptus tree bark section, but through my eyes it is a mountain landscape in my dreams.

Das Segelschiff Alexander von Humboldt – auch kurz „Alex“ genannt – ist eine stählerne deutsche Bark, die 1906 als Feuerschiff unter dem Namen Reserve Sonderburg gebaut wurde. 1986 wurde sie als Feuerschiff außer Dienst gestellt, zum Segelschiff umgebaut und war ab 1988 bis Oktober 2011 als Jugend- und Ausbildungsschiff im Einsatz.
