Description
Found along the Tideland trail in the Croatan National Forest, I've attempted to photograph this uprooted tree before. I was never really satisfied with past attempts but I felt like this one was a decent effort. I chose black and white to help bring out the textures in the wood. It simply seemed to fit.
This popular recreational area is located out side the town of Cedar Point, near Swansboro in eastern North Carolina. The Tideland trail leads through a wetlands area associated with the White Oak river. The well maintained paths lead across wooden boardwalks and bridges then through a small maritime forest area. The location features a small boat ramp and a campground. This spot is popular with joggers, dog walkers, kayakers and bird watchers.
