Valley of the Rocks: Windblown lone tree.
Another view from this wonderful valley demonstrating the direction of the prevailing wind here. Below and behind the tree we see the flock of wild mountain goats that live here.

Roaming goats' I'm sure,. are contented goats,.. and the valley's name is appropriate by seeing the randomly scattered boulders,. amazing how they come to be like that. // A fine countryside capture Herb,../ Dj.

A beautiful landscape and we can see which way the wind blows Herb.
The dead tree in the background is very sculptural too. Beautifully captured.

All the best, Rosa.

I really like the shape of the tree Herb.......I love the way the angle of its "lean" matches that of the slope underneath its branches.

Beautifully composed and taken.

He must be thinking; better to go with the wind than to brace himself against it.
