New life from some ancient trees indeed. Centuries old Bristlecone Pines from Mt Evans, CO.

A beautiful capture. Great lighting that renders absolutely correct colors and so crisp and sharp. Just like I was standing there looking at them.

Tim: Really nice colors and a terrific subject. I would be tempted to shave a tiny bit off the top to eliminate the partial cone in the URC and even a little off the bottom to make this more of a horizontal crop at about a 5:4 ratio. Well done.>=))>

Agree with Bill on the suggestion to crop the cone int the TRC. Other than that lovely photos and the cones really kinda pop out of the screen

Beautiful lines, details and colors. I like Bill's suggestion for the horizontal crop.
