Showing It's Age

I am not sure which forum this belongs in, so here goes. Our weather has been abysmal. SO instead of sitting inside or wishing the snow was not, but is, I went out in search of something to photograph. I have always been intrigued by old trees and the design of the bark or the signs of old aged diseased dead trees. So I am going to keep searching them out and try to do some in Black & White, color, macro close ups, etc. Maybe I can broaden my artistic horizons.

Canon EOS 5D, Shooting Date/Time 3/19/2008 12:32:13, Tv(Shutter Speed) 1/15Sec. Av(Aperture Value) F16, Evaluative metering, Exposure Compensation +2/3, ISO 100, Lens EF28-135mm f/3.5-5.6 IS USM, Focal Length 95.0 mm. Tripod with cable release, 90% of frame here, cropped for 12x16 print.<!-- / message --><!-- sig -->

This could very well go into macro, well seen, I'd increase the saturation to highlight the reds.
