Blowing almond tree, a photo from Ouarzazate, South

Photographer's Note

Just the pleasure to show this almond tree we discovered in Sarhro's range at an altitude where there is very few trees.
To get such tree in such place is a difficult task.

Salut cher Yves

Almond trees are always delightful subjects but this one is particularly so as it is situated in such spetacular landscape. beautiful vivid tones and sharpness. The cliffs in the background are awesome. Thanks for sharing, have a great day.

Bonne amities

Hello Yves - The rich, intense blue of the sky makes a wonderful backdrop for the delicate blossom on the almond tree and I like the textures of rock and grasses. Warm regards Rosemary
PS I don't think I have ever seen an almond tree in life, somehow I would never imagine that they could grow and thrive in such a rocky environment, perhaps they are like olive trees.

Hé bien moi ce qui me plaît,c'est le rapport aridité/fraîcheur de l'arbre que je trouve très bien rendu.
La paroi rocheuse à l'arrière-plan est très intéressante aussi avec son drapé vertical...dommage qu'elle soit un peu loin...
Bonne journée Yves,

Fred

Yves
Ces amandiers en fleurs sont toujours très photogéniques sur fond de ciel d'un bleu intense comme celui là. Ce qui ajoute encore de l'intérêt à la photo, c'est le contraste avec le sol aride dans lequel il pousse.

Salut Yves,

Très joli contraste de couleurs entre l'arbre en fleurs et le ciel ! J'aime aussi la façon dont est mis en valeur l'arbre par ce point de vue en contre-plongée.

quelques fois la nature nous donne des exemples de force et resistance: c'est une surprise de voir un arbre fleuri parmi les rochers...

Hi Yves,

A very different Morocco phto than I expected. Fantastic light and great clarity, like spring time in Euroupe. Beautiful contrast between the white flowers of the almond and the sky.

Great quality as always. Complements.

Way
