Is this a tangential or radial section of coalified wood?

Is the following photo a radial longitudinal section or a tangential longitudinal section? ( I mean the second photo named "fiberintaper" in the album)
The photo is in the website: http://tw.photos.yahoo.com/lin440315/

"fiber in taper" ... doesn't sound like coalified wood to me. The others are right, you can't see well enough to make a judgment about either pic

I agree with the first answer. It's too difficult to see. You must have a microscopic picture.
