Had a go at converting this to mono, a suggestion from Wendy www.flickr.com/photos/lizinitaly/, they look even more dead now! The colour version is in comments...
There were so many twisted dead trees in Kodachrome Basin State Park. The green in this image is from nearby live trees, not the enormous dead tree.
Down below, on the left side of Wilbur, the Oneonta Gorge can be glimpsed. It is a very narrow gorge with a 100 foot waterfall that was an overly popular trek before the 2017 fire. The Gorge is now closed although some people still climb over the barriers. The yellow tuffs are new trees sprouting from the roots of burned maples and oaks. And off in the distance is a stand of evergreen survivors of the fire. The Columbia River is also visible.
Deadvlei is a wonderful place to explore composition to express depth. The dunes that surround the site allow the sun to bathe parts of the site with light while other parts remain in shade and provide slivers of light to show even more depth. What a great learning experience. 20220620DeadVleiTest27
This skeleton tree sits amongst the reeds in the marshy Alde Estuary near Iken.

Beauty is in the eye of the beholder!
I captured this photo minutes before the sun set. The shadows were moving rapidly along the ground toward this old tree. The rest of the field was cast in shadows from the tree-line behind me, with the exception of this tree. It was special to watch and I'm glad I had my camera with me.
Viewed from a distance, Lower Tahquamenon Falls seem very serene. Viewing closely reveals the power of the rushing water.
Tannins from decaying roots and leaves colors the water, just like the color of your afternoon tea : )
