"Willow-weeping"

"On the east side of the Cascade mountains in Washington State the landscape is very barren and dry with little vegetation except for wild grasses and sagebrush. There is, however, a picturesque vineyard high above the Columbia River canyon where this photo was taken.

Seeing this elder willow tree amongst the desert vegetation was such a stark contrast. It was early morning, the air was still and I was struck by the mirror image in the lake. It wasn't until I saw the photo on my computer that I realized how much the tree looked like a large animal - some have said an elephant, some have said a wooly mammoth… what do you see?"
Lee Atwell (combo inspired by Ilana Buch-Akoundi)
