Friday My Town Shoot-Out: Twisted

The idea of the My Town Shoot Out is to post photos of your community every Friday, and hopefully improve your photography skills. If you would like to see examples of this week's theme from other parts of the world, go here.

Photos taken in Corvallis, Oregon

At this time of year the gnarly tops of oak trees are full of lichen and moss.


An up-close look at a dead tree.


One cold morning recently there was frost everywhere, even on this barbed wire fence.

One night we were at Block 15, a microbrewery and restaurant downtown. I was so hungry that the lights on the railing next to me looked like shrimp on a skewer! Yeah, when I get hungry watch out; everything looks edible.

    I have a serious case of shot envy! I've been taking shots of barbed wire for months and still don't have a decent one. Yours is fabulous! Also love the second tree.
