In the Heart of the Darkness --- Kalpea Kansa

Thanks.

maybe a little bit too dark, but "the end" is near, isn't it? Ciao, Giuseppe

Great. I can perfectly see beneath a white matte, a crisp black frame, hanging prominently on an otherwise bare wall.

it's so wonderful to see kids beyond a tv screen or a government decree -- whole to dream alone as one anew in their heart of...

What a dramatic pattern that you did not just looked but captured it well. Great shot.

Very creative, great composition...7/7anon! Best regards

Very good! regards, Martijn

Giuseppe: I intended it to be as dark as i could tone it without losing the birches. While standing on a dark forest and no sounds around you, you feel like the ending is near...

Jeff: Thanks for that, really appreciated.

John: Long time no see, but i still have no idea what you said, was that a quotation from somewhere?

Iftikhar: Thanks for commenting.

Diego: Thanks for commenting.

Martijn: Thanks for commenting.

It's a moody photo - and has an eerie feeling to it. The contrast seems a bit too much for my taste, but may be it was required to convey the loneliness. Best regards.

Nice treatment. I love how dark and desolate you have made the mood.

 

I have tried to get a definitive shot of the many birch forests which abound in my area but have so far utterly failed, so now I am both jealous and in awe.

My design teacher would love this. Just black and white with no clue as to what this is, yet we all can recognize them as trees. Hang it on a wall!

Very cool B&W. These tree truncks make an interesting visual effect with their straight lines, tones and the denseness of the trees.

I think that in nature, everything has its purpose, photographing these patterns is to use the natural ability of abstraction, and enjoy the imagination, outside the natural evidence. Congratulations. Best wishes. Vicente.

.... could work well in the Nature images, too, Tero.... reminds me of the River Birch in the Fall... the bark peels and it is sooooooo lovely and facinating... warmest autumn Regards

Jayanti: There is a bunch of contrast in this vision. I wanted it to be like that because i wanted it to be a bit pressing image... you know,.. bad thoughts the longer you stare it.

Gordon: With your skills... i'm quite sure you'll find your shot.

Joseph: Thanks for the visit, clad if you liked it.

Bob: Thanks for commenting, really appreciated.

Vicente: Thanks for those kind words, really appreciated.

Sheryl: Made for abstract...For my taste it's too dark for nature photograph. But in abstract category and as i am quite an abstract maniac this category sutis fine with me. Thanks for the visit.

For what I'm reading, your achieved pretty well what you intended to do... It is grim and depressing, it speaks to the guts.

Well done!

 

Thanks Juan. Means a lot to me.

Seems very high contrast but with well preserved midtones on some of the trees. I wouldn't call it lonely or depressing, maybe austere and contemplative. Great photograph. Cheers, Jay

Thanks Jay. Austere describes it very nicely in my mind.

I think you did great job here.... amazing photo...yes..it is deep and much deeper as you look longer...

Regards to you!

I like this abstract texture.
