The image shows a close-up of a tree branch with a root system. The root system is brown in color and appears to be old and weathered. The roots are twisted and gnarled, with some of the roots sticking out of the ground. The top of the root system has a small white patch on it, which is likely the root of the tree. The background is a grassy area with some dried grass and twigs. The image is taken from a low angle, looking up at the roots.
