One of our stops in Yellowstone was at the Lower Falls in Yellowstone’s Grand Canyon. As we walked along the pathway to “Artists’ Point” I noticed this scene. I don’t know how long this tree has been here – quite a while I bet – but it was not about to give up and die. Its roots are now out in the open, but they reach back into the ground and it continues to grow. Nature is so fabulous and so interesting, if you pay attention.
Everyone was focused on the falls. I was focusing my camera in the opposite direction. I have read this advice before, but it rings true again and again. “Take time to turn around and look behind you.”
