Wonderful landscape!
Thanks Victor. I endeavour to keep my landscapes or urbanscapes with just a bit of the grittiness of life in them, structured but not too smooth either. Kind regards Christophe
Wow ~ what an interesting tree! Nice contrasty shot.
Thanks Mike, yes a special tree indeed. I strayed from my usual conservative approach to tone and went for something a bit more contrasty. it prints rather nicely. Speaking of printing, do you print yours ? Am enjoying your work.
Thanks for the additional information, Christophe! I love to print my images and have only just begun doing so. Printing really gives an entirely different look to a photo, don’t you agree!? It’s nice to read that you’re also doing some prints as many photographers don’t bother these days.
Couldn’t agree more! Delighted to hear you print too. For me the true test for a photo is if it prints.. or not. I only post photos that I’m confident will print. But then I started out many years ago when printing was the only option. I print digitally now. Can’t say I miss the darkroom …but don’t tell anyone I said so 😉
Looks almost infrared. Beautiful photo!!
Thanks Charles,
yes there is something about the tones of the very fresh green leaves translated into grey…On a personal note I shy away from infrared photography that can produce no doubt beautiful images but that leave me a bit cold because too gimmicky and removed from the world around me as I perceive at least. I state this to clarify my approach and mean no offense to anyone who uses infrared , real or simulated, photography. I feel likewise with HDR. I tend to stick to a fairly classic palette of grayscale .Hope you are keeping well.take care Christophe
