we've had a couple of warm days and nature leapt forward to unfold its beauty. I am trying to capture the feeling when you discover everywhere something new.

Iduna,

 

Nice series. I think you captured the new feeling with the last image.

Hi Iduna,

These are lovely and so full of feeling! I think they make rather a good counterpoint to my little series of autumn shots,

of course they are from different sides of the planet and of different seasons but they embody a very similar appreciation of nature doing it's thing....

what do you think?

[Louis]

What a beautiful set! The first shot is just fantastic!

Dee,

I clicked through your exceptional collection. Great work.I think you are right about the attitude and interpretation. But the landscape at your place is offering much under the aspect of drama and compostion. Not to mention about the light. Here we have rarely a situation without buildings, no real wilderness, all being under man's control. The forests here are difficult from the point of framing. I always try to bring about a kind of wilderness beyond human influence. So you have to did deeper. This is a constant process and here I always find the lenses of Leica are transporting more contents because they demand a careful planning.

Bill,

 

very interesting your comment. Thanks for taking a deep look.

 

Louis,

thanks a lot for your emotional response. Indeed I grappled with a harsh light which illumionated the strip of bright trees but let the colors became pale. Even with filters it was difficult. Here an ND filter could have helped a lot but I was in a hurry to push forward and did not bother to get out my tripod.

A lovely set. I like the last one best.

[fotografr]

I completely agree with the sentiment expressed by Dee. Each of your collections capture what we all enjoy about the natural beauty of seasonal change.

Egard,

nice, thank you.

 

Stuart,

interesting, also you chose the last one. Perhaps because it looks like a curtain and one would like to know what is behind.

 

Brent,

It makes me really happy that you like my results. It is encouraging to keep going further. Thanks.

I like the vertical trunks most in the last one.

The repeated pattern gave it drift in the composition.

Iduna,

 

A wonderful series of an enchanted forest like we read about in the old children's fables. I'm looking for something special to jump out at me especially in the last shot.

Arthury,

thanks for your helpful comment. It is a an encouragement for further plannings

 

Paul,

that this sort of "enchantment" is being evoked is a very good feedback. Thank you very much. This is exactly what was my own feeling there. Perhaps this sort of strange symmetry is responsible for this effect.
