Molto bella questa foto Stefano!
l'ottimo POV sopra i colli ti ha dato il punto perfetto per costruire l'immagine.
di solito preferisco i posizionamenti laterali dei soggetti, ma questo nonostante sia centrato nel mezzo funziona molto bene, probabilmente per quella specie di "onda" creata subito dopo l'albero dalla collina e per il fatto di averlo posizionato in basso nell'immagine.
buona la qualit� e molto bella anche la luce.
ciao

Lonely tree is quite a common choice of subject but the realization still works very well. Simple, beautiful and very Italian image. I especially like the combination of brown and grey colors. Excellent work.

Here comes a new graphical pictures. This time, it is not the colors, but the lines the subject.
First I was thinking some more colors on the tree should have been good but after reading your note, I understood why you proceed in this way. Moreover, the shape of the tree is enough to use this element in the picture.
I like a lot the separation of the picture by the 2 earth colors and lines mood.
The square framing is well equilibrated. I wonder about the middle symetry put with the tree, but here also it is working well. Did you try other placement of the tree, is this one the better one?

A really good idea of photo,

Yves.

molto bella questa sperimentazione tecnica, paesaggio suggestivo e composizione equilibrata. Leggermente spenti i colori, comunque esageratamente pastello in maniera voluta, credo.

Hello Stefano - What a surreal image! The sky has turned into wavy earth! The tumultuous waving lines give the image movement and texture. I understand why you've underexposed though part of me would love to see the rich colours with this image. Turning it into a rich oil paint :) Rgds, Leilani

Very clever Stefano. It almost looks like a painting. Like the compo of thirds, classical appearance.

Hi Stefano,
very clever POV, making for a superbly graphical image with special tonalities. I like a lot the dominance of the earth tones and special texture you created. The feeling of an aeral view is strong.

Ciao Stefano,
Adoro questi scatti, la composzione centrale in genere non mi piace, ma qui la simmetria ci st�.

this is exactly the kind of your pictures that I love. Limited colours and shapes with big graphical impact.
Bravo and thanks for sharing

Bellissima Stefano! Il campo sembra un'onda dalla quale emerge il piccolo albero solitario. Mi fa un p� pena...
ottima proporzione nel POV.
Bravo!
Ciao

carlab (2097) 2008-03-04 5:53

bellissima immagine, ottimo il taglio quadrato e le proporzioni
pi� che l'albero, sembra protagonista la terra, che hai colto con delle sfumature incredibili
un paesaggio irreale, molto bello
ciao, Carla

Hola!
great great great. The composition is really well done, as the exposure how you explains, that gives a great contrast. All it gives a very graphic picture.

If you are agree I take your picture for my theme: Lonely trees...

Hasta la vista,

javier

Hi Stefano,

Nice composition divided into two colors; grey-blue and brown, completed with all alone tree. I like symmetric stand of the tree. I like all details indeed, very nice work.

Congratulations!
Burcu

Stepan (27210) 2008-03-05 22:51

The zoom and the 2 plans make the compo really stunning, with a strong visual impact... And that tree is great to have strength. Excellent.
That's land art.
