This spot intrigues me because it has a variety of rocky outcroppings and dead trees in stages of decay. I just hope a wildfire doesn’t blow through here, because it would be a shame to lose the wonderfully weathered branches that are building up as prime kindling. It becomes a test of arranging the branches against the right background, watching out for too much and not enough contrast. I’m still working at it.
