This year in South Texas the acorns are plentiful. Limbs and branches on the oaks sag considerably due to the extra weight. Years like this are called a "mast" year when there is such an abundance of crop. There are a lot of theories of why one year can be so significantly different then another but currently there is no hard evidence or ways to predict which years will result in a mast year.
"Antiqued" and took the background out of focus on this picture of a cluster of acorns during a rain storm. I like how you can see the water pooling on the leaf on the left...
Tweaked this picture as well. This is a small primitive neck sheath I made from vegetable tanned leather and a piece of tanned animal hide of unknown origin. The knife is an original Turley model 23 that I wrapped with jute twine to further the rustic look and functionality.
Have a few more random pictures I am working on...check back soon...thanks for looking.
