no loftier tree

Tremont / Great Smoky Mtns NP

Though on the forest floor the scene was a subtle
mix of shadow and light, the view upward was quite a contrast. From this perspective, the trees seem to reach boldly for the sky, while the brilliantly back-lit leaves add an exclamation point to the image's statement.

"And all the trees of the field will know that I am the LORD; I bring down the high tree, exalt the low tree, dry up the green tree, and make the dry tree flourish. I am the LORD; I have spoken, and I will perform it."
Ezekiel 17:24 (NASB)
