A tree stands out in an arid landscape, almost devoid of a horizon. Its complex, dark shape is the only vertical element in a uniform expanse, a point of reference in empty space.
The composition off-centers the subject, leaving ample breathing room for the desert expanse on the left. The choice of a narrow aperture (f/11) guarantees an extended depth of field, rendering both the texture of the ground and the complex branching of the canopy with equal sharpness.
