Royal gardens

Thanks for your ratings and/or comments.

Great contrast between foreground and background.

 

Cropping a little more foreground helps to emphasise the cones in my mind.

Highly engaging and bizarre...wild find!

I like the strong lines - you have a knack for finding them :) I also like that I can't really tell what these are - topiary? Decorative sculpture? What's going on with this... which makes me think about it more, and look for other details. Nicely done!

Thanks for your comment, Kathy. I made this shot the same day as 'Touring Versailles in 45 minutes'. Those are the gardens outside the castle, featuring 17th century, French style gardens. The black cones are little trees, the triangular forms are kind of small bushes drawing geometrical patterns, and the alleys were covered in snow.

You have a good eye - nice geometric motif.

This is well executed. Clear composition and lines. Wonderful, Axel.
