The top part of this tree has died, I suspect in a very cold storm or perhaps a fire. The bark has fallen away exposing the tortured soul of the tree. The bottom part is still alive and holding the tree up.

I find this to be an amazing picture. The way you photographed it is great, the texture and direction of the tree's structure really catches me and draws me in... Great shot!

A great shot indeed.... nature never ceases to amaze me and I love your description regarding the trees "tortured soul" it does indeed look in pain. Very well spotted and shot

Great capture vahid, and great control on not bringing too much whiteness into sky, which can easily happen with a shot like this. It's perfectly aligned and centered, which really brings a top notch focus on the subject. Now the tree itself is very interesting to study, and it does look like it has a story to it, which seams to be not that pleasant. Yet another great shot from you
