The Heart of the Matter


This is kind of a feeble attempt to put Floris image, "The Graveyard", in perspective, especially to those who haven't visited the Bristlecone Pines.
These images don't come close to the composition or artistic impact of Floris' expansive view, but I thought they might be interesting.

#1, This shot is a close up & crop of a snag, an otherwise dead example.
The rich tones of the resin, still present in its carcass.

#2, Here is a wide, but less expansive view of the area to the west of Patriarch Grove. I think this is near Floris shot. What is incredible is the extreme, harsh environment these trees grow in.
The shattered rock for soil

So as you can see, everything from a close, macro view of the trees to their own personal habit, to the remote world they live & die in. It is worth going there even if you don't make a single photograph.

Enjoy
