This one not easily categorized, the Trees thread is as good as I can figure. Taken on Monday, Deardorff 8x10, 240mm Schneider Symmar-S, Arista 125 (FP4+). The darkslide slipped out and exposed an inch of film, so this is a cropped section.

Thank you for the complements - The live trees are interesting but I enjoy making images of dead trees.

Thank you - That is an interesting part of the world - I live at sea level - so hiking around with my 4x5 at 11,000 puts a little extra load on the body! When I was younger I rode my mountain bike from this grove at 11,000 ft to the peak of the mountain 14, 200+ ft. (White Mountain) I drank 3 full bottles of water on the way to the top and never sweat a drop of liquid!

Thanks for the complements - the clouds were really important to that image - I drove from the town of Bishop that morning (I started at 3:30 am to get up to the mountain for sunrise. I took the "silver canyon" route. It is a steep climb - you climb 6,000 ft in elevation over a distance of 6 miles..... the drive alone is worth the time - even if you leave your camera at home.
