Rainbow Trunks in Winter Clouds

Vivid bands of orange, violet, and teal paint the weathered surfaces of fallen tree trunks lying scattered across the dark, wet earth. These petrified forms stretch horizontally beneath a sky torn by fast-moving grey cloud bands. Puddles between the wood reflect the pale midday sun, creating shimmering patches of light that dance across the mineralized bark. The ground is bare and cold, devoid of leaves, showing the stark geometry of the timber against the grey soil. Raindrops fall in a fine mist, catching the light to form a brief, localized sun shower. The highest trunk curves gently, its surface glistening with moisture that mirrors the chaotic clouds above.
