Awsome pic as usual Steve you do have a great eye for photography. This picture kind of makes me feel like the deaths of these children were strange or uncommon. Form the view of the tree it looks to be growing very strangely. This is my view of this pic sure there are many but great photo and thanks for sharing.
Thanks UT for the kind words. You are right about the children. If I'm not mistaken, they were related, but never together. The first child died after a little over 3 months of age; the second died 6 years later but was only about 7 months old. It could have been something like yellow fever or something genetic as both children died so young.
The tree is a live oak and they grow this way. I really like photographing them because it adds impact to the image; especially black and white.
Thanks again UT!
