Tree Trunks - The origins of Wood.
It's currently preserved by Jacob Ballas Garden.
A wooden interrogation chair used by the Koreans in ancient days.
This picture was taken at Dae Jeum Gum filming site in Seoul.
Those who have watched the drama, would have seen this chair where they question the criminals and torture them in it.
I was awarded these 2 awards from Ellen of Deep Down The Heart
I'm glad that she thinks I've got a Fabulous Blog. She too has got an interesting and fabulous blog. Do that time to visit her blog if you haven't met this sweet lady :)

Striking first picture! never heard of an "interrogation chair" before... interesting, to say the least, lol!
Happy PH and happy weekend :)
Poor tree. And that is a really cool wooden interrogation chair. Lol. Maybe I should get one to torture someone.
I've seen that in their soaps ;) Great choice.
Great choices for the theme. The second photo is interesting. Happy weekend.
Good shots. Have a great weekend!
Great photos for wooden! have a wonderful weekend...
Wow! A great take on this week's theme. Happy weekend
The photo says it all for the theme;-)Happy Weekend!
The tree trunk is beautiful. The interrogation chair is interesting and somewhat frightening. Have a great weekend.
wow, the interrogation chair is by far the most unique i've seen around. great photos all!
Interrogation chair? I thought its for carrying people! That is a little frightening.
Have a great weekend, Ling.
A wooden chair for interrogation?! I wonder how it works. Looks tough and strong though.
I hate to think what they did in the wooden interrogation chair. What a great photo of the tree. Have a good weekend, Napaboaniya
The wooden chair is so cool!
Those are cool choices! Wow...I'd hate to be near a tree when it gets hit by lightening.
This is cute. Ancient interrogation chair? i thought they used bamboos on the fingers...aikss~~ :P
Hop in for some fun to have a more alert mind this weekend in Criz’s Sanctuary and/or have a look into the history of the Chinese culture in Insight Criz. Have a nice weekend!
GReat shots--the second is abit creepy thuogh.

I really love that 'chair' shot.. beautiful, ancient yet.. hm.. horror.. haha ha electric chair?? Waaaaa... i wonder how many people were killed on that chair?
eh mine is up.. hihi
Rooms in my heart
I'm familiar with the Top 10 Chinese Tortures, this Korean torture chair is new to me wor. Must go find out more so can make one to torture some people. hahaha.....
Happy Weekend,sweetie;)
Great photos. It's good that the tree trunk is currently given care so that it can be preserved.
That wooden chair must have been a source of fear at that time.
WOW.....that chair brings emotion. wonderful choice for the theme.
happy weekend.
Very interesting looking chair.
Seeing that tree trunk reminds me of another picture I good have posted.
I almost did something similar and post a picture of some huge trees we saw in New Zealand. But, I just did tree's close by our home instead! Awesome pictures!
It must be "exciting" sitting on the chair waiting to be shocked. LOL!
Yikes, the torture chair is creepy, it looks so spindly but I'm sure it holds a screaming prisoner quite firmly (I told you it creeps me out!)
what an unique chair :D
mine in here
wow..you have nice wooden pics in here.
Will you visit my “wooden“
That chair is an interesting piece! I'm just not sure it can hold my weight. =)
Both examples leave me feeling quite sad. The tree lost it's life, and likely spme of the people in the chair.
great wooden shots! awesome!
happy weekend!!
Mine`s up,too!
thanx,

It's quite easyt to escape from that interrogation chair. :D

my hairs raised with the chair lol!
Oh yes, I was one of those die hard fans who watch Dae Jaeunggum and got the DVD to speed up the episode, watching it till 3am in the morning!!!!
Nice pictures here.

Two such different takes on the theme; but very interesting takes!! Thanks for sharing them.
Oh Ling, thank you, thank you! I can't believe you made that for me! You're very thoughtful! :) I'm putting it in my sidebar for everyone to see!
very inspiring , the wooden chair remind me of a huge wooden chair i found on kampa island prague,czech republic in the middle of river back of art musuem
I like the first photo, looks like a sculpture with the objects below it.

Interesting shots. I really like the info on the torture chair. Thanks for sharing.
I loved the preserved wooded tree and I hated the torture chair. Boy, a picture sure can evoke a great deal of emotion.
Great shots!
the wooden chair looks like a big torture
mine's up here.
Kind of a scary wooden photo! Much pain and anguish had taken place there. But good shot, good idea.
Have a Nice Weekend!
very interesting photos up there.i like the old chair ehhh..
check out mine too
Wooden Harley Davidson motorcycle
Both great choices!!! Happy photo hunting!
That tree is a work of art! Beautiful.
we have a tree like that near here we call a hawk tree because it sits there often
Great pictures. Normally I see coconut tree stumps but this one is different. I want to be naive like a little kid to admire the chair and not to know what it was used for.
I'm usually late. Hope you like my hunt.
Terrific photos! That's a very interesting interrogation chair. Thanks for sharing.
That wooden chair looks so old and unique.

I was coming up dry for this week. I came by here and your inspired me. Love your choice for our theme.
What an amazing tree. And the chair is an interesting part of history!
Sorry I always comment late...=D Poor tree...the interrogation chair is really a curious thing! Great takes! Happy weekend!
Great photos - wouldn't want to be sitting in that wooden chair!! Enjoy your weekend.
Awww! I don't think I'd want to know what they do with that chair? !!!!
Great pictures though, it's wooden allright!
We would scratch that chair all up!
That chair... not a place I'd want to have a seat! Happy hunting!
I cannot remember seeing that in Dae Jeum Gum, but it's OK because I can have a clearer view of it from your shot. Lovely. Have fun!
The chair is awesome! Happy weekend!
interesting wooden objects! glad to have not been near those objects when they gained their, um, reputation hehe
