Image Description: This photograph gives us a look at an old tree stump, well worn and showing many signs of its age and state of decay. Most prominent among its features are the many cracks that it’s sporting around it, indicating a lack of water and an abundance of sunlight. Perhaps even more interesting is the hole at its center, probably caused when the tree was originally cut; on the other hand, it’s equally possible that the wood in that area has simply rotted away. Around the stump, green grass and fungus are growing, with the mushrooms drawing on the rotting wood in order to nourish themselves.
