"The old that is strong does not wither,deep roots are not reached by the frost."
-J. R. R. Tolkien
These roots may be exposed,
but all roots run deep...
never forget yours.

Awesome shot, I love roots, and the overexposed bit is a really nice touch in my opinion. Its very real, but at the same time has a sense of abstraction, I love it!

hmm.
i like photograph composition, object and the choosen colors ( black white ).
( contrast is also ok )
but for my eyes these black-white differences at some points are disturbing, there these white points i dont like them at all. did you used a special 'mask' to reach this effect?
my opinion*

absolutely wonderful!
you've got excellent lighting, and on that note excellent contrast!
i LOVE the contrast, in fact. it's what gives the picture its depth, its meaning.
Besides, the view of such interwoven roots is just a wonder of nature in itself, and you've done an astounding job of capturing it.
awesome work

Hey! This is looking quite wunnerful and meaningful and-- Thank you for its being b and w. I like your depth-meaning and...just the image itself with nature's "celtic" knotwork and the like. I'm all inspired now to do some serious art-nouveau stuffs. Thank you so for sharing!
