Beyond the fire tree
there lies no lush green meadow,
only blazing sands.

    Ah, a meadow of another kind. Nice capture of a searing desert moment.

    This is a wonderful view – the desert floor in its monotone is not all that dramatic. Yet, the fiery tree stands out an draws our eyes upward to the bold orange ‘flame’ – nature’s special effects are amazing and beautiful!

    I see some commenters are disturbed by the lack of a lush meadow, but life isn’t always lush meadows, is it? 🙂
