Photographer's Statement:

  • : This goes to the theme because the tree changed throughout the seasons. (Winter) However, in the spring new leaves will bloom and the tree will become healthy. But in the meantime, it doesn’t have enough nutrients or sunlight to grow, so for now it will stay in its current position.
