Very nice! I am especially impressed with photos that use light and shadow as a key feature as you have done.

Thank you very much! Not easy or obvious but well worth the effort that I put into them.

Starting to get some color back into the branches now - I like the palette.

Thanks, Alan. They are just starting to tinge with new growth.

Very good shot. I find I keep looking at the image, and my eyes wander all over it rather that look at one feature, which to me is the sign of a good shot.

Wow Kurt! It's amazing how you do work these scenes. I know my similar images always look like busy messes. Yours almost look like paintings, but with more details.

Great job!

Looking at the image it occurs to me that it is a fantastic windbreak, and it is nearly an abstract shot, I like it.

 

[Douglas Sherman]

Excellent work, Kurt, as usual. I am sorry I didn't see this earlier.

Thanks, Kevin. These willows can be quite a challenge to photograph. Thanks for your input.

Thanks, Jim. It's actually super hard to find the composition doing things like this. I may get 1 or 2 each season with no guarantees.

Thanks again, Douglas. I really like how this one came out. They can be tricky!

Thank you, Monika. It's certainly not easy. I tend to pick up on things over several seasons and then it may take longer to figure things out. Thanks again for your feedback!

WOW!! I was thinking hair. Impressive work, Kurt

This could easily be confused for a painting.

Thanks, Eric.

This could easily be confused for a painting.

Thanks, PC. I suppose that's due to the repeating patterns in this image.
