New Year

What an interesting photo - where is the ladder going?

It's nice to see something different, I suspect a lot of photographers would have removed the ladder for the shot. Great colours also and nice composition.

You could possibly darken the foreground to make it more of a silhouette like the tree itself.

The ladder touching the tree is the lovely detail in this photo... Remove the ladder and the poetry goes away... Yes, colors are beautiful, the sky is gorgeous, but without the ladder leaned "against" the tree... ... ... Ladder and tree, together, are like a romantic marriage... or like the physical, sensible, proof of an honest, signed with blood, agreement... like the body of a mutual confidence... the "another step" in a long way to achieve a great purpose... ... ...

Humans love to spend energy with mediocre, unfruitful, insignificant "things"... like waiting for the next and new year!... More extraordinary is the fact that humans do some bizarre rituals before, during and after the year change... Ask to that tree if it felt some "feelings" before, during or after the year's change... You can also ask to the clouds... or perhaps you can ask to the sun... The, always receptive one, land / soil is more close, ask it!... ... ...

The human beings count the time, but the time does not lose time counting human beings!... … ...

A lovely photo!...

Best regards.

Hope the New Year will be for you and us as good as the picture is :) I mean this by the weather and light:) Any way very good composition and colour well done :)

Best regards Bart
