Llano River is beautiful still despite near stagnation from the drought
I couldn’t bring myself to photograph all the dead and dying trees on our recent trip out to the Hill Country around Mason. I’m still in shock that we may be witnessing climate change and whole ecosystem changes over the course of one summer. Or so it seems. I remember visiting family in the 80s when there was a drought going on, and someone saying that the desert of West Texas was slowly creeping that way. Mason is definitely on the border between Hill Country and West Texas, but I fear it will become like Arizona, or worse, at least for awhile.
Is anyone else documenting the drought? I wonder if I should document the landscape before it changes to desert.
