The Final WordPress Weekly Photo Challenge has presented their final theme of All-Time Favorites, which, while being a bit sad that it’s their last prompt, is a great way to finish.
Sometimes the images that I favor are rather simple and straightforward, such as today’s choice. What is simpler than a tree in a field?
Such as this tree that has stood the test of time…

What caught my attention, and caused me to take this shot, is the evidence of wind’s influence on the growth direction of this tree. While it spread in many directions, so as to catch the Sun’s positive influence, there is a noticeable lean to this lovely tree.

What this tree told me, more than anything else, is the value of persistence, against the elements and to stand across the years.
Have a great day!
