Lone Tree on the Prairie
For several weeks, I have been attempting to do justice to this lone tree on the prairie. The sun was gently descending and I steadied the camera for another round of captures, hoping this might be the special moment.
Just then, a bird landed on the tip of the tree, adding an unexpected element to the landscape. After a few snaps the bird was suddenly gone, but I was left with a rewarding memory.
Photo captured at Peck Farm in Geneva, Illinois, and softened in Corel.
