Portraits of Time explores ancient trees through photographic artistry that reveals their monumental presence and intricate detail. Beth Moon’s approach captures the texture and scale of these natural monuments, highlighting their age and endurance within diverse landscapes.

The images present a meditative look at time’s passage as embodied by these living organisms, inviting reflection on longevity, resilience, and the subtle beauty in natural decay. The 104-page book, published by Abbeville Publishing Group in 2014, offers a quiet tension between stillness and the life force of these venerable trees.
