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 to show proper respect, here it is in black and white as it may now be dead, but it is ... Not Forgotten.
I created this black and white image from my original color 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.
