Here is a weathered old tree that is beautiful even without any leaves. Its trunk leans and twists but the tree still manages to keep standing.

Beautiful texture and colors!
Thanks! I kinda have a thing for interesting trees. :)
Really Beautiful! :)
Thanks Tom!
It does look amazing. It seems as if the tree is twisting itself up from the roots, as if it were programmed to do this. I wonder, do all trees of this kind twist like this?
Thanks! I read that juniper trees twist and turn like that when their roots are trying to get water from deep in the soil.
So it's a juniper, yeah, I can see that now. Hard to recognize without the leaves. Looks like this one has indeed been very thirsty for a long time. It's as if it is drilling for water.
Yeah, I wonder how deep it's roots go.
Beautiful photo!🙂
Thanks so much!
Gorgeous!
Thanks!
