Default Nails in trees?

In article , Mike
writes

In another case, a wire rope has been put round a tree to support a
fence alongside the path. The tree is some 12 - 15 inches in diameter
and the steel rope is completely buried ad a nasty scar in the bark all
round. Fortunately the tree is damaged further up and has to come out,
but what would that wire, the diameter of a pencil, do to a chain saw?


I have now taken some photos of this tree and the wire rope doing a
disappearing trick into the bark. Can someone please tell me where I can
post these piccys so people can access them and see what a mess it
makes?
