Tree top and dull sky

Posted by Mirko Herzner (Mühlheim am Main, Germany) on 5 September 2008 in Plant & Nature.

A dull winter sky and the beautiful top of a tree. Nothing more to say I guess...

oh wow -- this is very abstract! in fact this might be the most abstract piece i have seen from you! reminds me of japanese or old chinese silk print paintings... just wonderful space and detail. very soothing and intriguing too -- what were you feeling when you shot this? how do you feel now? i love it -- but as you probably know by now, reality to abstraction is one of my big things... just fascinates me -- different ways of seeing!

@dj.tigersprout: Thanks a lot for your encouragement, DJ ;-) When being honest I have to admit that this picture has been cropped quite a bit before posting it here. When I took the shot I did not realise the abstract qualities this could have. Now I really like it and consider it one of my better works especially for its simplicity...

Super. This one is extra good. As said already, it works well even on the level of abstract. Great tones.

I like the muted tones and simple composition, Mirko. Works very well.

Nice simple composition. Especially like the predominance of soft sky.

no matter that it is cropped mate! it is the end result that matters, and this is marvelous! but can i ask -- what made you crop this photo? how did you come to this end? i hope you do more work in this vein... well done abstraction is (in my opinion) one of the more fluid keys able to unlock the many elusive doorways to the divine! ;)

@dj.tigersprout: This picture was taken from quite afar. So I needed to crop it maybe 50 %. It also contained another tree which disturbed the simplicity I longed for ... ;-) Thanks, DJ!

A very clever shot, Mirko, and a lesson in how to make the ordinary appear quite extraordinary! As I write this, you're number 57 on the Hot Photoblogs list of Photoblogs.org, and that's a very respectable position to be in.

@Andrew Gould: Thank you so much for letting me know, Andrew. And thanks for all the encouragement...
