European hornbeam #13

European hornbeam, Carpinus betulus, collected in Germany in 2004, first images of 2007, when I acquired the tree. The last images with the slab are virtuals, of course. This one I have neglected for a long time, partially because it is too heavy to carry it alone. And then I was not so sure whether it was really good enough for my collection. After the final styling now I am sure.
