My kind of tree! Nicely twisted, gnarled and weathered! Beautiful capture Andrew! Following your work! ~Anne

Thank you! Bristlecone pines are some of the longest lived trees in America. In California they reach 5,000 years old. This one in Colorado is probably well over 1,000 years old... still a youngster! ;-)
