A sense of loss of the past never to be found again. Young and fresh to the world, seeing wonder in everything. It's in my mind but mostly buried deep under a fog of thoughts and memories built up over a lifetime of just living.
If only to have that feeling back, only for a fleeting moment. Thank you Zeus.
another interesting compositional trait about this image is a Yin-Yang interactions between the black branch and white clouds which appear to be wind-swept in the opposite directions.
yes, this speck of white is a great touch, after initial inspection it quickly becomes the focus of the photograph. I think it's a bird though, too big for a leaf :)
An oppressive use of foreground, even without the title I get a sense of pressure and drowning. The presence of that single white element floating in the water anchors the image and gives the viewer hope for a great day! I can honestly say that this is a masterful composition.
