 This is a rock & Tree in perfect harmony on my Great Great Great Grandfathers ranch on Chelino Valley road inland from the Pacific ocean by just over a mile... The prevailing winds have 'finished' the rock and the rock has provided a 'template for the 'elements' to shape the tree... This is a very special place...

Try a polarizer and back up and position this subject using the rule of thirds. Just not much drama to this shot
