Two Places at Once 10 / 15

Bare tree silhouette at sunset filled with blue surf.

Tree of Tides

The two photographs
A bare tree leaning over the lake at Creve Coeur Park in St. Louis as the sun sets, and a rolling wave with surfers at Pleasure Point, California.
Why together
A Missouri lake and a Pacific break share one horizon line. Surf pours in where the grass was, so the tree stands at the edge of the ocean.
