Description
"Photon Entanglement"
This is a very unique oak tree out at Lake Kegonsa State park which has two very large limbs that are "tangled" with each other. The intersection of the tangle creates a sort of triangle-shaped "peep-hole", so I positioned myself so that the sun would stream through the hole and give the sun-star effect you see below, when using a small camera aperture. I'll post a different image (as first comment to this post) which gives a clearer picture of the "tangle". FYI - The title is a reference to a very weird but well-known phenomenon in physics whereby two quantum particles (like photons - i.e light) can become inextricably linked, and, irrespective of distance between them, if something happens to one particle, the other particle responds instantaneously. Kind of romantic, in a way! Albert Einstein called it "spooky action at a distance". Anyway, I thought it was a good title, since photons are definitely streaming through this oak "entanglement"!
