I've missed adding to the last several #BlueskyArtShow but here is my interpretation of this Saturday's theme, #Jagged. This was taken in May 2025 at the Calaveras Big Tree State Park near Angels Camp, California.
A huge fallen redwood in the Calaveras Big Trees State Park. The jagged edges take up most of the photo but you can see the tree surrounded by tall standing redwoods.
