However, the more the image pop up on my screen saver the more I realized that the story was in the lines and layers. The burned out trees are of primary interest. There is a short foreground with the green foliage. The the lines in the trees take you to the back of the image, where you see the mountains and the sky. An composition that is often considered ideal is an s-curve drive coming from the bottom corner and taking the eye through the entire image. I believe the lines in the trees do this. Everytime I look at the image I pretty much skip the foreground and go right to the trees, inevitably my eye leads me to the mountains and then the sky.</blockquote>
