#### Come with me with a quick look inside the guts of this just-fallen tree.. hasn't even gotten wet yet.

### Evidence of the powerful stresses involved..

### Long fibrous strands splintering into wild patterns.

### As the wood buckled and folded upon itself, in the deep center of the fulcrum.. tightly curved pieces are amazing to see..

### Furry, even fuzzy edges to the freshly exposed core wood..[![TREE-06.JPG](https://steemitimages.com/DQmaGgRFetVMsQBhTyanND8QXrCzaqdnnz276bDQXRgNtzY/TREE-06.JPG)](https://steemitimages.com/DQmaGgRFetVMsQBhTyanND8QXrCzaqdnnz276bDQXRgNtzY/TREE-06.JPG)
### A view perpendicular to the previous view.. a rarely seen insect-free space riddled with sharp spines..

### Delicate edge of the destruction..

### Not unlike the trees in the distance in it's density..

### So clean and organically fresh..

### To the opposite side of the trunk..

### I find a little window through to the late afternoon Sun..

#### Deep inside the center of the fallen section we find some black mold.. one half of the tree had been rotting inside.
