Sunny Tree Healthy Me

Photographer's Statement:

This photo represents the theme “Healthy tree healthy me” by showing the cycle of life. What I mean by that is everything in this picture is working together. The sun is helping bring condensation to clouds which then creates rain for trees. That process repeats itself to create healthy trees.
