Until the End of Time

It took me a while to figure out the subject was a knot of roots in a tree trunk. An essential detail for me was the texture of the bark.  Overall, I felt there was a strong composition in the photo, with good use of color and tone.  However, the unusual appearance of that subject tree takes a little longer.  Because of the contrast, and the use of light grays and white, the photo might have more impact in a larger size; those bark details are important to the overall picture.

Thank you, John, for your constructive comments.  Much appreciated.
