Default Pictures of tree rings

I know that by aligning tree rings from living trees and dead ones, it's possible to construct a continuous tree ring record stretching back approximately 11,000 years. I wonder, are there any pictures available on the web that would demonstrate the rings and how they match up? Not that I don't trust the scientists, but it would be nice to have a clear diagram in the lines of the hominid skull sequence, if such a thing exists.
