Bark freshly splintered, probably the direct result of the thunderstorm that soaks everything in this shot.

Composition is a little off maybe, and it's a bit of a messy shot with maybe some overexposure, but I really like the colors anyways.

Rough splinters of wood sprout from the bark of a tree in Jephson Gardens, Leamington Spa.

I was looking for things yellow because I had my camera set up for black, white, and yellow and this made the spikey projections truly pop!
