No Bristlecone Pines here but this tree is on my daily cycle route. Deliberately grungy processing. Ken

I had an old favorite moss covered snag in the Hoh rainforest I used to revisit whenever I was in the area and started shooting it in different seasons just for grins.
This is a summer scene:
The is from a fall visit:
I was up on the Olympic Peninsula one winter and got excited to see snow one morning so I dashed over to the Hoh to get the shot that would round out my collection but as it turned out the moss and gravity had finally prevailed and only left a stump standing where the tree once stood:

Sweet shots so far. I really like the moss covered trees in the rainforest Alan, inspired me to look for some.
I've posted this before from Kenya, grass fire smoke in the sky. Shot back in the 80s.

Nice images so far and quite the flurry of posts in the last half hour. Here is mine from Rainbow Point at Bryce Canyon National Park.

For me, as well as others here I see, It is hard NOT to photograph the Ancient Bristlecone Pines in the White Mountains of eastern California. I've probably spent 75 nights up there, always photographing. I would live there for a week at a time, many times. I know every tree!! Hard to choose, but this one keeps popping up as one of my classics...
And another that has two expired trees in it...

That B&W bristlecone is wonderful Jeffery, the dramatic clouds flow out (or into) it perfectly.

I don't know Alan.... Very cool photos, but I am having a hard time finding the dead tree through all of the live ones.
Great job Ben! This looks like the Sentinel Tree.
Those are some awesome dead trees!

It's the one that almost looks like a mossy saguaro almost dead center. Oh yeah - and it's the one that's missing in the last imageI don't know Alan.... Very cool photos, but I am having a hard time finding the dead tree through all of the live ones.
