Here's my entry to the Spooky Tree Contest.... this one looked like a giant clutching at the dirt... perhaps trying to hang on in a windy storm...

@kus-knee
Thank You..!!!!

Hi, dear @kus-knee! I really wanted to take part in this contest, because trees are my passion! I'm not sure that this tree is spooky! But it is very mystical with the backlighting of the sun!

I need to get out and look. We may have some down by our flooded Mississippi River LOL Thanks @kus-knee

I'd love to have an entry from you!

The Bayan Tree Tomb Snatches are real and alive spooky and creepy they grow rapidly with their thick strong tentacles like a octopus embracing you in a act of evil and eat you up never to be seen again :(

3 black witches.jpg This tree is scary because it seems to be involved in some sort of ritual with three witches!

Taken by me with Samsung Note 5 at the St Louis Zoo.

Creepy!

Very nice!

Thank you! I just happened to take this photo quite recently.. Perfect timing!

Great contest @kus-knee and I will need to find such a tree!

Great!

Happy to see you doing this again, @kus-knee!

This is a driftwood rootclump that washed up on our local beach after a storm... it looks like some kind of twisted machinery or a bunch of goblin-ish arms and legs crossing each other:

How frightening!

It was quite a interesting forest but i would not want to be walking through there at night !!

Very spooky :-)

Thank you @manorvillemike :)

Hi Kus-knee. Your shot is awesome. It reminds me of a dry savannah waiting for the rains. A haiku in honor ...

a dry savannah
heavy clouds threaten above
a life-saving beating

Here is my contribution to the day:):):)The photo links to my blog for the full shebang. More haiku and another spooky photo.

Good luck everyone!

Thanks for joining us in the contest!


I came upon this tree... standing in the foreground of a seemingly unkempt piece of land. I think it was trying to run away!

I can see it moving :-)
