Lone Tree

This dead, windswept tree embodies that classic look of age, trauma and loneliness that's hard to capture anywhere else in nature. I loved how this one tree shows a sort of "ambition" in growing in the harsh rock environment that it did... Yet, for all that ambition, it's still dead. I suppose that's a rather negative outlook on it, but on a more positive note, the trees growing beneath the dead one seem to be doing just fine... Hence, it seems to show that failed ambition doesn't limit new ambition.
