Description
Because I don't have a lot of bird photo's, I am always on the hunt for water birds. For this reason I am some times in places that I would not have normally have gone. This was one of those occasions. As things worked out I ended up on a inlet off of the Gulf of Mexico, on the back side of Ft. Desoto park, in Florida. As I got to waters edge the one and only bird at this location was well on his way to a different location. No bird photo this time!! But this tree got my attention and I knew it would make a great photo. This was one of the last Australian pine trees remaining in this area. Most of the other trees were dead and blown over. This trees root system was well anchored around a large rock and the rock kept this one from falling over!!! Smart right!!! I call this amazing photo "Life On The Edge".
