thank you all, voters, commenters, dpc peeps.

this was a really "found" still life, no editing beyond making it look a little more dead/washed out than it was. as far as I can figure out, the dark areas are the result of the moisture retention of the overlying debris: as pennystreet said: still life.

very curious look to this, just dry and wet wood but like how it presents

Really nice. I have to assume you arranged these to fit into the bare wood spots.
