desiccated

Hunt's Mesa was the day's ultimate goal, and at a first stop on the incredible drive to the top we paused to take in the terrain....dry earth and desiccated juniper trees bore witness to the challenging conditions here

Absolutely stunning, David! I love the colors and especially the contrast of the wispy, lively grasses with the darkness of the tree. ~BV~

I'm a sucker for those wonderful dessicated forms… so well composed David! V

This old juniper did become quite large before it succumbed to the harsh elements.
Beautifully framed. It tells a story of life and death with new growth off to the side.
