Pine in the Lava #2, Black Butte, Oregon, 2006Yes, this is the same pine tree that is in the image posted on 15 Nov entitled
Pine in the Lava, Mt. Jefferson, Oregon, 2006. I rarely make more than one image of any given subject, this being an exception. It' such a wonderful tree!
This composition seems more optimistic, more celebratory of its struggle to survive in this lava field. I'm sure that's because of the line of clouds and the way they mirror the line of the hillside, both of which move in the direction the tree is pointing. Onward and upward, no matter how rocky the terrain.
