Yesterday was an overcast day with many heavy rain clouds rolling in (for us winter isn’t far away) when I spotted this tree up on a hill. Β It’s shape was so perfect… π
Very nice, great tone and detail – this illustrates when it is perfectly OK to throw the “rule of thirds” out the window. Great shot even if it was not a good dayβ¦now I have the Kate Bush song in my head for the remainder of the day (Running Up That Hill)
Perfect, indeed! And I like that it’s b/w.
Thank you! B&W seemed the only way to go with this one.
And you’ve captured it so well.
A compliment indeed! Thank you π
Beautiful, nature is the greatest inspiration and you it just is with your camera.
And you should know – reminds me of the beautiful lamp π
Wow, that’s an amazing shot, It looks like the Lion King’s tree π
Thank you very much!
You are welcome! π

Lol – sorry about Kate Bush! Glad you liked it and thank you as always.
Fabulous picture! Thanks!
Thank you and for taking the time to look through the blog.
Absolutely beautiful, and dead centre is dead right – and mono certainly the only way to go! Adrian
Thanks Adrian, as soon as I saw the tree I had square format in my head π
I’m with Adrian (yet again)–the symmetrical format perfectly reflects the perfect symmetry of the tree!
Thanks – I couldn’t quite believe this tree when I first saw it.
Makes a strong statement, that tree right plum in the middle π
Indeed, it made a strong statement on the hill (if that makes sense!) π
Certainly worthy of capture as symmetry like this is quite rare in nature I think. Indeed the technique honours the content perfectly. Great Photo!
Thank you, I have to say I haven’t seen many trees that often that look like this π
1st class work.
Thank you, glad you liked it.
Great picture and title!
Thank you! π
Found your blog through Monochrome Madness. This is a beautiful image. Thanks for sharing …
Glad you liked it and welcome to the blog!
Perfect indeed and your simple ‘symmetric’ composition works well with it.
Thanks Noeline, it was the only way to go π
The tree is beautiful – and your photo is excellent!
It is a beautiful tree and thank you π
One of my favourite subjects beautifully captured
It is the perfect tree π
