About the Image(s)
Trees are my biggest project and I'm always trying to find new angles and compositions. This one specifically I took next to the border with Ukraine in the winter of 2016. Camera Nikon D800E ; Nikon 24-80mmf2.8 lens @f4; iso 1000 ; S 1/320 ; Aperture priority. Presented as shot no edit.

Hi Adi
You have presented an interesting almost-abstract study of this forrest. My eyes linger as they strain to penetrate the many layers and I get lost in my attempt to follow the multitude of vertical and horizontal lines that make up your composition.
It evokes in me two seemingly opposing and incompatible emotions: A quiet, peaceful calm...and a sense of cold isolation and foreboding. Any image that can do these things for a viewer certainly achieves its goal and should be considered a success. Posted: 04/10/2025 12:27:45

I really appreciate this image, Adi.
My eyes are drawn to a very small patch of snow on the lower right. It gives me the feeling of walking on a downhill trail. If this is intentional, is there a little more information that can be placed there?
Very beautiful! Posted: 04/14/2025 00:11:49

Great image. I feel like I'm looking at a magnified image like a fabric. The white brighter diagonals of the branches and the vertical dark tree trunks create a pleasing alternating pattern as you look from side to side. Posted: 04/21/2025 09:01:24
