This shot isn't particularly well done, but I thought the subject matter was interesting. I drove by this tree for several days, contemplating a vantage point to shoot it because of its unusual -- and terminal -- posture. But, it was on private property, and the best I could do was a wide angle shot from a long distance slightly along a busy highway. I lost a lot of the detail blowing it up, but the interesting demise of this giant remains. After probably three months on the ground, it still wanted to grow, as evidenced by the new growth in the foreground and at the unseen ends of the other two sections of the tree... A tribute to the tenacity of life? A sign of the times as well? Down but not out??? filmuser3.smugmug.com/gallery/8223361_JE2TA/1/540909993_Gabt3 _________________________________________________________________ Hotmail? has a new way to see what's up with your friends. http://windowslive.com/Tutorial/Hotmail/WhatsNew?ocid=TXT_TAGLM_WL_HM_Tutorial_WhatsNew1_052009
