“Interplay” - New Image Release!

It has been a few months since my last release, and I’m thrilled to share new photographs. Click the link on my profile to view my new images from the California coast.

“Ancient Forest” 2024
The harsher the conditions, the older the tree.

“Vanguard” - An image of some young Bristlecone Pines advancing up the dolomite slope. With temperatures warming during the last century, seedlings are taking root above the treeline and advancing towards higher elevations.

Sculpted by Scarcity VII - The twisted trunk of a Great Basin bristlecone pine. These ancient trees grow in nutrient-poor and high alkaline dolomite soil where very few species can survive. They have been shaped and sculpted for thousands of years by wind, ice, and exposure to the elements.

Thanks Michael. It’s one of my favorite recent images.

“Stone Mosaic” A fallen pinyon pine cone resting on some colorful desert rocks. This is a photograph from my new image release about the Great Basin Desert.

It's fun to see the comparison.
