Skywatch Friday - Driftwood on Land

I apologize if you have seen this photo before...I just thought since I was diving back into my Africa photos, I would stick with the theme I started with my Zebra photo below, and rework an old Africa shot for today's Skywatch Friday... it does have a different feel to it than the original I posted months ago...

Have a great weekend, and be sure to take a trip around the world visiting all of your blogging buds that participate in Skywatch Friday...

I wouldn't probably have discovered this great photo blog of yours if it were not for the SWF. Thank you for making and presenting these beautiful photos of Indonesia.

You wicked man! ::grin:: You realize, of course, that I shall now have to go on a search for the original photo posted "months ago." Fear not; I expect to have a great time doing the search.

Wonderful photo for SWF.

That tree has seen better days. It still works as a prop for the sky though.
