Against a Blue Sky - Skywatch Friday and DPT


A dead tree is jarring, 
but also, strangely beautiful 
in the midst of a sea of green. 
Photo taken on Block Island, Rhode Island. 

Part of Skywatch Friday
and Daily Picture Theme

  1. Pretty photo. I wonder what caused that tree to die? Everything around it looks so healthy!

    1. I'm not sure, but perhaps it was a tree that doesn't thrive near salt water.

  4. Beautiful photo. Since I have been older I have learned to appreciate the beauty of every living thing through all phases of it's life and then death cycle.

    1. Yes, I think of fallen Autumn leaves, pods full of seeds, all the things that go back into the earth to renew it. Thanks so much.
