What is it? #55- can't see the wood for the trees

For the cloud-hating mortals amongst you, be not a-feared, we have ANOTHER edition of 'What is it?' without clouds!  Hurrah!



Here's a recent tree picture from my time in North Yorkshire.  The photo was taken on a walk from Maybeck to the Falling Foss waterfalls.
But....it doesn't just look like a tree to me...I see something beyond the bark!
Take the time to ponder,scrutinize and ruminate over the image you see before you. What do you see instead of a tree bark??
Share your thoughts in the friendly comments box below where nice cups of virtual tea and squidgy sofas are available for free!

What about last time's image?  Another NON-cloud image- don't say I don't spoil you occasionally!

Well, I see several things here.  If I look at it straight on, they look like scroll-less violins piled on top of each other.  If I turn my head to one side, they look like masks for some sort of masked ball!

What did my illustrious commenters and friendly imaginatives see?

  1. I see fish in the retro curtains, 2 fish in the wardrobe door and the fish on the left has a face in it, I also see a large butterfly, and a tall Egyptian cat. Beautiful marking in that wood.

  5. To me they look like rows of dressmaker's dummies with hourglass figures ... xxx

  6. Mmm... this time I am not so imaginative... I see a lovely pair of curtains that could well belong to a palace, no joke! You see, not so ready to see great things today, this is the post-b-day blues :) Hope you have a great day! Hugs!

  7. this is a nice change from cloud guessing...I do love clouds but this is fun too. This one reminds me of an owl.

  8. Definitely fish and a cat! If that glorious wardrobe lived in my house I would probably spend a lot of time staring at it anyway because it's so beautiful and would probably find something super hidden.

Ooh, so Bev and Fiona were clearly on my wavelength and whilst some of the others focused on the previous week's images, it was lovely to have their contributions! I like  the idea of owls, dress-makers dummies and fish too!!!

Please do share your thoughts on the bark!

  1. That tree has eyes and is seriously watching the neighbourhood. I'm naming that tree Gregory.

  2. You know the first few second I didn't see anything and I was already starting to get worried because this is something that usually comes naturally to me...and then I suddenly saw it- it is a dragon. Chinese kind of dragon, with a beautiful head and a long lizard body. I can see it so clearly now. Isn't that funny?

  3. ACCESS TO GRACE BY STEVE FINNELL

    What is God's grace and how do men access that grace? Grace is not earned, it is obtained.

    Grace is an unmerited favor granted by God to all who meet His requirements.

    Romans 5:1-2 Therefore, since we have been justified through faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ 2 through whom we have gained access by faith unto this grace in which we now stand. And we rejoice in hope of the glory of God. (NIV 1973)

    A. Justified through faith, which is obtained by hearing and believing the gospel. (Romans 10:17 Consequently, faith comes from hearing the message, and the message is heard through the word of Christ.) NIV 1973

    B. Grace is accessed by faith. Faith is not accessed by grace.

    Ephesians 2:8 For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith--- and this is not from yourselves, it is the gift of God--(NIV 1973)

    What is the gift of God? Answer: Salvation through faith.

    Grace is the reason salvation is available through faith. Grace in and of itself cannot save anyone. Grace must be obtained.

    Grace is available only because of the shed blood of Jesus Christ.

    Titus 2:11 For the grace of God that brings salvation has appeared to all men. (NIV 1973)

    Salvation is available to all men that meet God's terms for accessing His grace.

    Hebrews 9:28 so Christ was sacrificed once to take away the sins of many people; and he will appear a second time, not to bear sin, but to bring salvation to those who are waiting for him. (NIV 1973)

    The truth is, many are waiting for Jesus to return who have not accessed God's grace.

    HOW TO ACCESS GOD'S GRACE
    1. Faith--John 3:16
    2. Repentance--Acts 2:38, Acts 3:19
    3. Confession--Romans 10:9-10
    4. Water Immersion--Mark 16:16, Acts 22:16

  4. This is fun! I see a bird's eyes and beak or maybe a human face in the tree bark?! I hope you're having a good week Kezzie. Blessings.

  6. I like the clouds and anything you show for us to guess! After you said now that you saw violins on the curtains, I agreed - I wasn't full of imagination on the day you showed it :) This time I see a rose and leaves, it's such a wonderful picture and tree, I never saw something like that! Hope you have a very nice day, dear Kezzie!

  7. There's definitely an owl in that tree and he's looking a bit incredulous (really!) and a bit fed up.
    The curtains remind me of a bunch of the dancers, lined up in Busby Berkley style, but out of Disney's Fantasia, were they candlesticks? On the left panel they've got their right shoulder up (the left one as we look at it) and in the middle it's the other shoulder and the right panel they're back to the first shoulder - they're obviously shimmying to some fantastic dance tune lol
