Monday Monochrome – Old Wood over the Canyon

Monday Monochrome – Old Wood over the Canyon

For this week’s Monday Monochrome, I offer this image from the south rim of the Grand Canyon. This old wood is what remains from a tree, probably victim of a lightning strike, that must have stood proudly on this spot. I always find images like this full of meaning and emotion: determination, longevity, persistence, courage.

  1. This seems so familiar, as I was there just 13 months ago. Everyone agrees (presumably) that it’s a great place for pictures.

    1. Thanks for your comment. I think if I were editing this picture today, I’d darken the background just a bit to bring out the texture of the wood. That’s me: Surrounded by grandeur and beauty, and I photograph an old dead tree. 😀

        1. Oh, good! I like the two pictures you point out. I like trees, living and dead, that stand out against/over a scene like the canyon. There are numerous examples in the Landscapes portfolio, https://joannemasonphotography.com/landscapes-collection/.
