Sitting at home bored, and healing up after surgery. Looking through old pictures I had saved in photobucket. These are a few of a couple hundred stump tables I've made. Made from Western Juniper wood. It's a slow growing tree that grows in the high desert of central Oregon. These are about 400 years old.
The federal government has cut down thousands of acres of it claiming it saves water that the juniper trees take from the ground. I get permission to glean some of the unique pieces before they burn it.
The piece of granite I used on one of them was the only color I had at the time. It would have looked better with a lighter brown colored piece of granite.
I used a piece of black velvet, and a red blanket for a back ground, and available light from a window, with the camera on a tripod.
