18th Annual Smithsonian Magazine Photo Contest Natural World
Life over death
Walking through the West Thumb in Yellowstone National Park, I came upon two broken and withered trees. I was fascinated at the moss's ability to take on the challenge of the decaying wood and create a new life. The transition through life is constantly changing and this photo captures the very changes in motion.
