we all have to die...

I was impressed by the weird shapes created by these hedgerow trees. I meant to shoot more winter trees last winter, but have been too busy. This was shot yesterday, and everything is starting to come to life again - except this one.

Panasonic G1, 1/500s, f/11, handheld.

The image pretty much tells the story, and is very effective for that reason. Nice capture.

Like the graphic shapes and moody feeling. On my monitor, the magenta seems a bit strong.

It looks like the wind has worked these trees over. There is a strong feeling in the simplicity of this image. Fine image.

@Nancy "the magenta seems a bit strong"

You are quite right, I didn't notice that. I must have pushed the tint aslider by accident in CS5. Altered version above.

I noticed the magenta cast too, but actually thought it contributed to the artistic quality of the image. I don't like the second version as well. Maybe somewhere in-between.
