jo_jenns 0 Posted October 14, 2004 Found this location late today but got rained on before I could get all the shots I wanted. Small crop from left and bottom. There is a dam in the dark green strip and the position I was standing gave the highest vantage point. Link to comment
petejr 0 Posted October 14, 2004 A wonderful surrealistic image. I like this one a lot. Link to comment
alberto.prt 0 Posted October 14, 2004 Hi Jo, this is a great shot! I like colors and the contrast between yellow and blue ... the crabbed trees have great impact too. Some PS here?Regards. Link to comment
nilesh2 0 Posted October 15, 2004 wonderful landscape..would love to see more photos from this place Link to comment
Guest Guest Posted October 15, 2004 Great composition and light. Anyway two big burned spots in the upper left/right corners that disturb the eye a little. Link to comment
jo_jenns 0 Posted October 15, 2004 Thanks for the comments and ratings. I will have the chance to revisit this location on Sunday and the weather is set for fine/sunny with cloud developing so I am hopeful of getting a set of shots. Link to comment
eric_fredine 0 Posted October 16, 2004 A remarkable collection of trees - almost too good to be true. I think the moody weather suits the trees well. Link to comment
Guest Guest Posted October 16, 2004 These trees look strangly familiar...are they cloned into the scene?...the shadows seem to make no sense. Link to comment
jo_jenns 0 Posted October 16, 2004 No the trees are not cloned in. The 'shadows' are the area round the trees that are not in crop with the canola, the long strip at the front is a depression where the dam/pond is and the green is the tinge from the canola folage. I have to say I was so pleased and excited to find this surrealistic setting and your 'photoshoped' comments have taken the edge of the joy for me. Link to comment
carnelli 0 Posted October 16, 2004 Jo, this remarkable scene is proof that when the light quality matches our imagination, the results speak for themselves.......regards.....Tye. Link to comment
jo_jenns 0 Posted October 16, 2004 This is a commercial crop of canola/rape and the farm equipment can not crop to the trees, they are not flowers. I did not ADD the trees and I have not listed the image as manipulated. I did global edits to colour and USM after resizing. I have no idea what all those trees in a desert setting you attached have to do with my image. Link to comment
vlad po... 1 Posted October 19, 2004 These trees look natural to me. I know something about agriculture and I'd say all farmers worldwide do the same thing, planting crops around trees, stones, power lines etc. Photography, it's about light and here the lighting looks interesting. Due to this combination of the light&color the image stands out. Agree with Pete, the picture has surrealistic look with these Australian trees. I saw many times the trees like these specifically on the photos made by Australian photographers. A kind of Martian Cocktail. Really stunning capture. Link to comment
amanda mumma 0 Posted November 14, 2004 definitely surreal looking - what fabulous light and I love the barren trees in amongst the flowering canola. Looks like the crazy Melbourne weather we are having at the moment ;-) Great capture. Link to comment
