It looks like it got pretty beat up by strong winds dear Michele. Is that right? Great balance of the foreground with the background where you can clearly see a tree that is ready to bloom for spring. Outstanding tones my dear friend. (I must become a member so I can add you to my friend's list)
Big hug,
Julie.


Michele Carlsen   {K:128850} 4/4/2008
Well Julie I swore I would NOT tell the tree's story but some of the strong winds we had ( & have)) did have a lot to do with it ...:))
Hahaa! I have to tease around whenever possible ..just my nature so I hope you will still be my friend and put me on your list :))

THANK YOU for the very kind and detailed comment my dear.
Big hug back ,
Michele~

Very beautiful shot Michele. These shapes work so well in black and white, nice tree branches.


John Hatz   {K:140340} 4/5/2008
nice shot and mostly because the subject Michele... looks like hit by a thunder or even a very strong wind, sad image and so the greyscale works fine for me.
be well!


Michele Carlsen   {K:128850} 4/5/2008

Robert Kocs   {K:89061} 4/8/2008
What a drama, what a splendid dramatic composition, dark tones
give a special feel to the viewer. Very nice natural shot,
You see, no doubt the nature makes the most beautiful scene &
view. What you captured & seen well, nicely done dear my friend! 7/7

Have a nice day dear Michele,
Robert


Michele Carlsen   {K:128850} 4/8/2008
Dear Robert Thank You for the very kind and detailed comment of much support my dear friend ...It means so much :))

Hugs,
Michele~


parehan .K   {K:20231} 4/10/2008
It works beautifully in B&W dearst Michele, a richness of details that is very pleasant and a texture with which you can play in creating variations!! Warm regards and hugs,
parehan


Michele Carlsen   {K:128850} 4/10/2008
I really appreciate your opinion on this image especially dear parehan ...I am so happy you think it works as I am more of a 'color' person and a bit un-sure of B&W which sounds a bit backwards -ha!!
Hugs, Michele~
