well ... The stump was a tree, and the rest still is. Out on the flats of Dyea, out from Skagway, Alaska, U.S.A. Also near the head of the Chilkoot Trail, which I have hiked twice, since coming to the Yukon. Sincere thanks for stopping by, commenting, or just enjoying.

Wonderful scene and the contrasting green looks so beautiful in this Winona! That poor dead tree adds something of its own to the capture. Superb shot!

The roots of the chopped tree adds to the loneliness of this vast area. Although I can see tyre tracks the stillness is unmistakable. Nice capture Winona.

If practice makes perfect and nobody is perfect, then why practice?

Simply breathtaking view of the wide open space. The tree trunk really adds a sense of loneliness to the scene.

I like the stump, trees, lake, mountain and clouds but the trail with the tire tracks detracts somewhat I think. Not the trail, the tracks. It takes the wilderness out of the scene.
Don't get me wrong Winona, I really like this shot.

Cameras are like people--sometimes they lose focus.

I like pigs. Dogs look up to us. Cats look down on us. Pigs treat us as equals

Tell Tick to take a rake over the sand to obliterate those tracks!....hehehe!...

See what he means though!..

you captured a great lead-in with the log and the composition is a cracker!...

Amazing! Many beautiful things in one shot. Clouds over mountains, dark part of the mountain in front, shining water, sand and remaining roots of a tree. And of course with a great lighting, focus and colors. All in one.

Regards, Tanju
