I love the curve of this picture and how well it works with the title. Obviously the infared makes it very fantastic - fairy winter land. I like how the brightness, featheryness of the leaves contrasts with the dark winkled bark! The bench welcomes to viewer to sit down and enjoy the image for a while. Excellent. 10
Very nice shot very nicely composed and captured. Hard to find fault with any aspect of it. The colors are unusual and I'm wondering how you managed it. Did you select and modify the leaves using a negative filter. Whatever, it's very effective.
I would like to see a slightly lower point of view to emphasize the bench a bit more, but overall this is a gorgeous scene. I like your choice of b/w for it as well - conveys a mood of solitude to me. Great work! [8]
Is that snow?!! What a pleasant sight for me - it's been over 100 degrees the past few days! (It may be some take off on infared, but I don't really think so.) In any event, this is a creative and well execued B&W. Great blacks and good tonal range. The snow in the shade is a bit grayish - but behind is perfect. Composition could not be better. Overall - this is full of impact and wow! (Just finished voting on 100% - and expect you to be the pround owner of a new ribbon soon.)
