Description
"One of the most widely photographed trees in the world was the Jeffrey Pine on the crest of Sentinel Dome in Yosemite National Park. Its beauty was made famous by the legendary Ansel Adams in 1940, and was photographed & enjoyed by thousands until it died of drought in 1977.
Many say that its rugged beauty was the result of centuries of harsh winds, frigid winters, and dry summers, that its was a beauty born out of adversity. But some would say that it was not adversity that produced the beauty of the tree� it was the response of the tree to adversity." (Beauty Born Out of Adversity, 2009, http://www.lightalongthejourney.com/)
I didn't have a tree story, but I did have a flower.
