Cross-section of a felled tree trunk fills the frame, rendered in monochrome black and white. Deep radial cracks splay outward from an off-center point on the right, intersecting with finer concentric growth-ring lines and tangential fissures across the weathered surface. Raking light accentuates the rough, fibrous grain and the shadowed depth of each split, contrasting pale gray ridges against near-black crevices. The asymmetrical placement of the central fracture point draws the eye rightward, while the spreading network of lines creates a balanced, web-like composition throughout.
