Description
I spent more time and had more fun creating the thumbnail than the original.
This is another pic from Ghost Ranch,NM. The knarly tree is a dead pinon, which there are many. I was told that a drought made these trees susseptable to a certain kind of beetle that destroyed many of the pinons in this area. These dead trees have such character in shape, color and texture that I must have photographed everyone on the mountain.
This one sparked my demented imagination and thus the thumb.
Thanks for viewing and your comments.
ENJOY TODAY =O])

Quite an excellent composition and the colour and tone and superb - I would like to see this image in B&W! Quite well done indeed!
very well done ! Great photo !
Love it! In the White Mountains of Arizona many of the dead Ponderosas have that special orange color where the sap has hardened near the wood's surface. It's such a vibrant color in the sun, a red-orange not seen anywhere else. Terrific job, Ray!
A wonderful nature shot. Looks very impressive. Excellent photo!!!
oh wow... this is incredible... really gorgeous SW shot! bows back to the tree ;]
It almost does look like a formidable alien. Excellent capture and love the background colors.

I like your composition. "Alien Tree" is a well fitting title!
The tree has a supernatural look to it! Almost demonic! Even the branches have a certain wicked feel to them!
hahaha...love your thumb for this! :-) Excellent shot all around...very scarey looking tree!! V
it's like someone had the ability to make trees and one day was so angry that he/she took their emotions out on the tree...here, i believe is the result!! lol
