Beautiful Tree
My Grandmother was an artist and I loved when she would give me art lessons. She loved old buildings and crooked trees. She said they were far more interesting than the perfect ones. Now I can’t help but look for crooked trees and old buildings. lol. Anyways, this tree is some sort of a pine tree. It died from the Pine Beetle. Alberta has been having a horrible time with them. It is sad that it killed this tree but the flip side is that it exposed the beautifully interesting branches!

Stunning photo Rhonda-Lynne. I also love trees. Sad about the Pine Beetle, but as you say, it did expose this one beautifully.

Your Grandmother was a wise person. The tree is like a road map that tells a tale of life.
