Alone – click to see larger version, it`s worth it

On my last photo tour to Morocco, we were on our way back from the sand dunes of Morocco through the winding roads of the Tichka Pass in the high Atlas. The weather was changing seemingly at a whim from sunny and warm to dark and menacing. Just the sort of drama I like. As we made it to the top of the pass, the landscape was a sight to behold. Golden bushes sparkled throughout the dark land. The heavy clouds and occasional rays of sun made it sing. Yet, was captured my imagination at that moment, was the isolated Juniper at the top of this ridge. Fragile and defenseless against the elements, yet, there it was. Standing against all odds.
