Description
(Copyright Mel Steinhauer all rights reserved)The Grand Canyon is a very colorful place as the sunlight and shadows move across the layers of rock thoughout the day. But here one day on the South Rim I found a very old Bristlecone Pine Tree, common to the American Southwest. Some of the oldest ones have been dated to be over 4,000 years old. They are very slow growing with dense wood that is highly resistant to insects and other pests. They can also remain standing for hundreds of years after they have died. So still today there are many to be found in Arizona, if you are looking for a... Grand Canyon Bristlecone Pine.
I created this image from my original photograph taken on location by adding digital enhancements, textures or other effects. These effects and image details will become more visible by clicking inside the green magnifier square as the cursor is placed over the image.
PLEASE NOTE: Our professional printing facilities have a feature for customers who desire artwork prepared for them to be in standard sizes such as 8 x 10, 11 x 14, 16 x 20, 24 x 30, 36 x 24 and so on. When you select your image to purchase, from the SIZE tab choose a VERTICAL, HORIZONTAL or SQUARE format. Notice that some portions of my original image may not be included in these cropped formats. The NATURAL format is the way I composed the image in camera or during final processing. Sometimes this would create an image size which required the use of non-standard mats or frames. So go ahead and see for yourself, by viewing my images in these new formats to decide which one may (or may not) best suit your needs or style of wall art. Of course, you may always choose the NATURAL format and purchase my art as it was originally composed and created.
Many thanks and best wishes!
