Dead Tree

This tree had its own sign on the Big Ferry trail at Skidaway Island State Park... it was identified as "Dead Tree."

I am always impressed by such dead trees. I encounter one in my bike trail, and it's bark is all ground by some bug and by woodpeckers (digging for that bug). And I always am impressed by that stump, standing tall despite it's decay. They look very apocalyptic.

It’s superb. Nothing like telling it like it is 🙂

What great processing to highlight the dead-ness in the midst of alive-ness. Beautiful image. And yes, Dead Tree.

I like the illusion of water vs. clouds behind the tree made more striking by the monochrome effect.
