About I saw this today while driving and thought it looked like an old man pushing a wheelbarrow under this wonderful tree...I took this picture through the open window in my car while sitting at a stoplight...I hope you like it..:):) Not sure which project to put this in...I was between characters and unusual vision, any suggestions?

Converted in PS and toned, slight crop...:):)

Gust@vo Sch3v3rin   {K:125472} 7/27/2005
Muy buena composición...con un toque dramático...Realmente asemeja a un cansado hombre empujando una carretilla o quien sabe que...mmm...tal vez un enterrador empujando solitario a un ataud..
Me gusta mucho y así está perfecta.

Un gran abrazo mi querda amiga.

Hi Linda

That's an incredible natural find. The old bent over figure and skeletal tree are an interesting mix.

Mark


andrea giuseppe   {K:3122} 7/27/2005
Wow!!!! Your eyes discovered a wonderful image.


Angelo Villaschi   {K:49617} 7/27/2005
Yes, I can definitely see it. Very well spotted, Linda!


greg collins   {K:11930} 7/27/2005
Very nice shot Linda. Love the fine branches agianst the sky. The figure is spooky after reading it's not a real person.
Regards Greg

You've got great eyes to catch wonderful moments. It does look like an old man with a wheel barrow. great composition, too. Very sentimental..... I love this, Linda.


Dirck DuFlon   {K:35779} 7/27/2005
Oh wow, Linda, what a cool photo! Qué ojo tienes, mi amiga!! :) This absolutely does look like a man pushing a wheelbarrow! The other shapes toward the middle of the tree look a little like tombstones to me, so the imagination can continue your story in all kinds of ways! :)The way you shot this as a semi-silhouette reinforces the illusion while still retaining some of the details in the grasses in the foreground (really great job with that!!)
For me, the 'unusual vision' project is a perfect fit! Wonderful!


Linda Bique   {K:74033} 7/27/2005
You comments are always so well appreciated and it amazes me sometimes how you see what I see...this has a cemetary feel to it for me as well. It's beautiful in color too, I should have put it in the comment section..thank you mi amigo for your wonderful commentary as always...besos y abrazos...:):)Linda

Great eye, Linda. It really does look like the man and the wheelbarrow. It just shows that it pays to keep your eyes open all the time!

Mark


Dirck DuFlon   {K:35779} 7/27/2005
What can I say, Linda - great minds think alike! :)


L. Gould   {K:11900} 7/27/2005
Wow--Great eye! This really does look like an old man pushing a wheelbarrow. I think it fits perfectly in the unusual vision project. This is beautiful in black and white. Well done! :)

Nope UV is perfect project for this. Well done and seen, I thought it was an old man too! :)
Great job Linda - I added you to my friends list but don't feel obligated to do so back. I just find we comment on each others shots a lot so it will be easier to see yours. :)


Linda Bique   {K:74033} 7/30/2005
Thank's Cheryl, glad you liked this, and of course I will add you to mine...my pleasure...:):)Linda

Thank you for your wonderful comment and I am looking for some more of your excellent work...:):)Linda


Rocky Berlier   {K:2003} 9/6/2006
I get confused over which project to put something as well. They need more categories too. I really like this shot and you can totally see the old man with the wheelbarrow. You really do have impressive observation skills. Amazing really.
See, I'm slowly working my way through your fantastic portfolio. :) Infinitely Large HUGS! ~R


Linda Bique   {K:74033} 9/6/2006
Wow you're good for my ego, thank you for those flattering words Rocky, I'm glad you like it. I don't have a lot of interesting stuff, I deleted a lot of my portfolio a while back...that was stupid, oh well, a lot of awards too...duh...Larger hugs to you mister...thank you again...oh oh I think you're gone now...LOL :)


Rocky Berlier   {K:2003} 9/6/2006
Oh man! You deleted it?!!! Ugh! Gosh, look at all your karma points! Yeow!!! How long you been here? Geez, I'm just a baby compared to you. :) (See, how I turned that age thing around?) DynAmIc HUgs! ~R
