Description
There's something special about trees that makes them such wonderful photographic subjects. They are so many shapes, forms and textures. Trees are majestic in life and in death. There is simply a beauty to them that draws us like a moth to a flame. When a friend and fellow photographer suggested we go to a place she knew of along the San Jacinto river I jumped at the chance. As we walked along the river, she was first to spot this tree. Bent and twisted, it still clung tightly to its place on the sandy river bank. It survived numerous floods and its shape indicated it wasn't a life without difficulty. But it prevails and therein lies its beauty.

In addition to the banner, I am adding this more permanent recognition of its FEATURE on the homepage of A TREE OR TREES IN BLACK AND WHITE. I try mightily to feature only images that would be at home in a juried competition. No doubt that this image fits that bill. CONGRATULATIONS! And consider adding your image to DISCUSSIONS "Please post your featured photograph here" for greater, long-lasting visibility.
