Pictorial Ode to an Old Friend

Visited this venerable pine along the Florida Trail many times over the years. The tree was massive and exuded presence. Saw the tree last week and it had died. A recent burn decorated the trunk. It still commanded plenty of beauty and awe. I felt grateful to have known the tail end of the tree's long life.
