    This tree looks like it as had a tortured life.

    Awesome structure. Couldn't help wondering the structure that led to this striking feature.

    Hey Buddy!
    Hope you're keeping your yaks fat this autumn.
    Can't wait to have some BBQ yaks. ;)

    I love nature, but never more so than when she gets all twisty on us.
