Changing of seasons Len, very well presented in this image, the different form of bare trees, the end of flowering, the " muted" colors.well composed, good exposure and light, depict the atmospher.

 

Happy holidays Len to you and yours.

Len, I envy you the seasons. I think you've captured the mood well in this shot. The bare branches and muted colours go beautifully together.

Pnina, Thanks, nice to hear from you again. This was in large part a test to see how Velvia would treat a rather drab scene. I'm pleased with it. Best, LM.

 

Jeff, I've often thought that living in a sunny, tropical\sub-tropical climate would be nice so I could get those rich blues & greens and other colours all year round but the four very distinct seasons in this part of the world have their own charm and certainly keeps me on my toes adjusting to the changing environment. Excuse me but I have to go, I think it's about to snow:-) Best, LM.

Carsten, Yes, I tried B&W on this one & found it to be too busy. Everything seemed to take on the same tone. In my opinion colour was the only way to go here. Best, LM.

 

Greg, I was sure you'd appreciate that old White Pine in the upper right. It was that element that first attracted me. What would you (or anyone else) think about a camera position a little more to the right to give it more prominence? Just a thought. Best, LM.

Greg, Thanks for the heads-up on Photozone. Got it bookmarked now. I see the logic in your explanation. I'd heard of the Golden Mean of course, but never studied it. Perhaps it's intuitive for most, ie: the thing that makes a composition just look right without dwelling too much on the 'why'. Stay loose. Best, LM.
