What it s really , one deceased tree and one that has gone to meet it's maker - seen in Bushy Park . There are a number of trees fallen and left standing like these two in the Park , I suppose this is a deliberate action as the old trees would be used by nature for insects and birds nesting and shelter and whatever other use they can be used for . This shot was taken very close to where my previous capture of the resting deer and recently posted .
A twisted juniper reaches for a cloud on the edge of the canyon. We went on a hike around the top of the canyon at Dead Horse State Park. In the left center of the image is the White Rim road as it twists down to the canyon from it's entrance in Canyonlands.

Three swans swim like silent spirits beneath the white branches of a flooded forest.
"Spirit in the heart make the blood flow fast
Spirit in the heart make the beauty last
Keep the hope alive when the youth go past...
Spirit in the wood let the hollow cane
Echo in the afterglow
Waiting for the flame to burn again..."

Happy Halloween 2019!
Dead trees, standing tall.
Fun with a wide angle lens.
Snow Lake Trail, Mount Rainier National Park.
Winter in California is the wet season. This day was no exception. We awoke early, after a cold, rainy night, hoping to catch a sunrise before the forecast rains for the day.
From Black Butte, we drove northeast along the Volcanic Legacy Scenic Byway until we reached a logging and fire trail up Herd Peak. When we reached the end of the navigable road we stopped, just prior to first light. As sunrise occurred, it was a mixture of intense sunlight, breaking through the holes in the clouds, with gusty winds separating the clouds above from the fog burning off around the base of Mt. Shasta, which created a haze permeating the Shasta-Trinity National Forest. An hour later, the mountain was completely shrouded in thick clouds, no longer visible and heavy rain fell throughout the day.
For a few brief moments, the sun light the clouds above Shasta on fire, creating colors befitting a volcano of this mountain's stature. Sometimes you just have to be thankful for the moments you get and move on to the next opportunity.

Dead trees in the vast dry valley of the Tsauchab River. This region is about 35 km from the entrance to Sossusvlei. Due to the dry climate these trees survive a long time. It is a landscape of surreal beauty.
Graffiti artists converge on the abandoned waterpark near New Berry Springs. It's been closed since 2014. Some well-known artists have plied their trade here, but the majority of scrawls were done by people with minimal talent in my opinion!

Something a bit abstract from me for a change. This leaning Skeletal Pine caught my eye and I thought that the image would work well in mono. So I layed on my back on the ground and set my 10-24mm lens at 10mm to get as much in the frame as possible and composed this image. I hope you like it.
A peregrine fledgling perches high atop a snag, illustrating the importance of dead trees in the environment. Peregrines require lookouts high on hillsides with enough clearance to see around them and outward, but close enough to the hill to remain discreet. They are constantly on the lookout for predators. Snags and dead tree limbs play a critical role their survival. Although not hunting yet, this young fledgling had advanced in its flight and landing skills since my visit the week before. In late June, this falcon preferred the safety of relatively flat cliff surfaces. One week later, it was exploring more precarious perches, like this one and various other dead tree limbs.
