Reader photo: Bottle forest

Photographer Karol Franks took some photos of Elmer’s Bottle Tree Ranch, along Route 66 outside of Victorville. The sunlight plays off the multicolored bottles. Franks wrote: “Besides being a beautiful gallery, the hollow bottles also whir a sweet tune when the wind passes through them.”
