• Tangled Limbs (don’t get too excited)

Here’s a trio of point-and-shoot studies from yesterday’s walk for the paper. Today, the moor was rain-swept and on the way back I was head-butting a NW wind. Yesterday, though, was balmy and the early-morning sun created magic light and shadows among the trees. The middle one reminds me of Mondrian’s early drawings (Red Tree, Tree II, The Grey Tree, Apple Tree in Blossom, 1912) which he soon translated into a more familiar geometric idiom.

Beautiful Photos! What camera do you use?
Why, thank you! It’s just a simple Canon Ixus 105. I used the zoom up to x4 for these. I didn’t treat them afterwards in any way.
Thanks for the reply, great lighting & composition, keep up the good work!
Unbelievable, beautiful photos! and scary! I hope you haven’t awakened the tree’s (dryeds?) magical properties.
Thank you! I think the spirits are safe once the sun comes up, though I sometimes wonder what happens in the dead of night. I need to check back each morning to see if they’ve moved …
