Dry creek bed

I found this not far from where I live. I was looking for a golden tree hanging over a reflecting pool, instead I found this. I really liked it. Something about the stark nature of the autumn tree hanging over a dry creek bed. About change and loss.

I am not sure about my painting though. Not quite a scraper, but not exactly what I was after. I might try again later. I don't know how long the tree will last though. They are changing so fast.
