Description

I thought this tree was awesome to stand beneath, looking up, at its massive branches and limbs. It made me feel so small. .. and dizzy. But before I fell over, I took this shot. lol Thanks for comments and favs on my most recent work; it tells me I'm on the right track I think, but most of all encourages me to keep on doing what I'm doing. Hope you had a wonderful day today ... Thanks for stopping by! Shari

I love this, well composed, very strong image. I think you've enhanced the original image well by continuing to work the surface. As you've posted this in photography you'll see many comments about losing the 'purity' of the photo, sad really so many photographers limit themselves to the conceptual trap of 'photographic purity'. The visual artists should not be afraid to exert their hand onto the initial shot, let the vision move you; art is process, not product. cheers, tim.

A beautiful shot! I, too, enjoy looking up into the canopy of a big tree and seeing the green glow of the leaves. Glad you didn't really fall over :)

Stellar grunge-like textural effects in this fine foto, Sharilyn! When taking these looking up shots I usually stick my right leg out behind me for support to prevent falling over backwards. And it's especially difficult when standing on uneven hilly ground.
