20th Annual Smithsonian Magazine Photo Contest Artistic
Wood with Heart

I found the heart...in a slab of wood...and fixed the part...to be understood! What I first saw was a partial shape of a heart in the center of the wood with the upper right section missing but reversed the left side in photo shop to make it whole. We burn fire wood in our stove in the winter months for a source of heat from trees that have either been knocked down by storms or have succumbed from old age. I find it fascinating to discover artful things that can be observed in the grain of wood.
