Another of those grand old juniper trees! I don't think I've ever seen one, but I HAVE seen bonsai made to look like this, but only a foot or two tall. Beautiful series, Mark! Congratulations on your AC!

An amazing palette of steely colors, echoing the impression of twisted steel wires that this old tree seems to be made of!  Great image, Kudos, and congrats!

thanks everyone! These lonely Juniper characters live so long they tend to grow in the lee of their own dead wood, building their own steely shelter. glad you all can appreciate. cheers

Love these tough old trees. You see ones like this around ?Crater Lake too. The harsh conditions they endure and still suvive is just amazing. Great shot!
