Another selection from the Dome Fire burn scar zombie forest in the Mojave National Preserve. My second trip to this location.
The Dome Fire was started by lightening on August 15th, 2020 and went on to burn 42,273 acres and kill as many as 1.3 million Joshua Trees: www.nps.gov/moja/learn/nature/dome-fire.htm. The remarkable thing, is that though the Joshua Trees were burned to death, they all remained standing.

The center column is mounted upside down in the tripod to hang the camera inches above the ground. I'm lying on a packing blanket to make adjustments. The camera is level, and front rise is employed to bring the subject into the center of the frame.
