Find files of specific size excluding search in a subdirectory

Hi All,
I was exploring find command and came across -prune option which would exclude search in a mention subdirectory.
My quesry is to search all files more that 100 MB size but exclude search in a subdirectory.

I am using below command,but somehow it is not working.
Can anybody help me understand where i am going wrong.
Thanks in advance. Smilie

Code:
 
find /logs \( -name /logs/wu01/tmpbuild -prune \) -type f -size +1000k
