I like tree-in-winter photos in general...and this one is most wonderful! You actually found a tree with arthritis in the middle of winter. In the summer he will be a fairy tree, especially if he has any moss on it. The controlled palette and slightly blurred background are great...allows the viewer to get lost following those branches here and there. Next time you are there, put your ear to the trunk and tell us what he says, ok?

You did this with a program? No photo? Well eitherway it's most impressive, beautiful work with a very nice atmosphere:)

This is t'rific! I didn't know it was a computer image till I got out of the VB. Voted high BTW. I love old gnarly trees and this one, made up or not is a keeper. Also love your poetic narrative.

The soft, pastel smoothness of this photo makes for a great work piece. I like the gentleness of it. It has a soothing composition that pleases the eye. Top stuff.

Whoa Bob - This is a striking view. The branches twist and turn in a gnarly way. It appears that snow is covering these interesting tree limbs. I can even see a face towards the middle of this tree! The soft grey/blue color is lovely against the bright white. Wonderful creation!
