Gnarly Trees

DSC07518.jpeg

I noticed this “gnarly” tree sort of sticking up out of nowhere, seemingly out of place. What caused it to look like this you might ask? My best guest would be, probably a lightning strike got this tree sometime recently. An unfortunate thing for the tree, but a work of art for us humans. Hopefully this tree will be able to rejuvenate itself in time, if not, then nature runs it’s course as usual. The end result — a beautiful vibrant green forest once again! Thanks for stopping by.

the first image looks cool👍 the contrast between the dead tree against the backdrop of dense forest and mountains in the distance creates a dramatic yet serene atmosphere.

It looks uncertain that the tree will be able to be rejuvenated again. The reason I think so is because everything looks green, and it looks like it's been raining. But it doesn't make it short of a beautiful sight. The black and white is magical

Oh man, a strike like that on the tree would be a serious one and I think that's the best explanation looking at the way it looks. Some scientists did say plants feel pain too so sad for the tree, that's one thing about trees, they can't even run for cover when danger comes

Such is the cycle of life aka the ecosystem. Interesting thoughts..

I have traveled a lot, in the forests around Yosemite, Tahoe, other places in the Sierras, Utah, Colorado, Arizona, and it seems like I always find one like the one in your first picture, a cool gnarly tree looking over the rest. haha

Maybe a thunder attack that got it burnt. Kinda odd amongst the fine greenery. Hope it revives again
