Lonesome Tree — New Mexico

A lonesome yet resilient Rio Grande Cottonwood tree carved out its existence in the arid gypsum dunes of White Sands National Park in New Mexico. It was the poignancy of its setting that first drew me to this scene, and photographing it felt more like creating a portrait than a landscape. Although the tree is relatively small, it could very well be much older than it appears. It serves as a reminder that age is often difficult to judge in the harsh environments of the desert.
