21st Annual Smithsonian Magazine Photo Contest Natural World
Some tree lives in the alien world of white pocket

White pocket is a bizarre geological formation in the northwestern of Arizona, where a group of white rocks form into waves above red sands. Since there is small holes, i.e. pockets, among these rocks, some trees find a place to live and create a scene with its black branches casting into the white alien world. You will be amazed by how strong they are.
