My small forest Photo

Photographer’s Note

Today, a photograph without pretentiousness and especially without church!
My small forest
I hear the wind among the trees
Playing the celestial symphonies;
I see the branches downward bent,
Like keys of some great instrument.
- Henry Wadsworth

Bonjour Philippe, tien, c'est vrai il n'y a pas d'église, mais elle est jolie cette petite forêt, de beaux jeux d'ombres et lumières et de belles couleurs. Amitiés.

Bonjour Philippe,
I like your not pretentiousness attitude, in general. This is not an extraordinary place, but is definately a pleasant and relaxed view. I can imagine a myself treking in there, bettween the pinetrees, under a nice sunlight. Good graphism of the trunks and wonderful game of light and shadows. A not pretentiousness atmosphere, very well captured!
Merci,
Amitiés,
Ricardo

Bonjour Philippe,
Aujourd'hui des arbres fragiles comme l'église de nature.
Merci et regards, Gerrit

Bonjour Philippe,
Es tu certain qu'il n'y a pas une église qui se cache derrière ces arbres? :o)
Une belle lumière et une petite sente qui traverse au mileu de ces troncs élancés. Une invitation à s'aventurer pour voir ce qu'il y a à l'autre bout... peut être une église!
Bonne journée
Bibi

Simple, rural landscape - that's what I need to watch! Thank you for sharing. Regards.

Bonjour Philippe

I like the repetition of the pine trees, the dappled lighting, & the superb sharpness. Beau travail!

bonjour Philippe,
Jolie petite forêt de pins délicats. Une belle lumière laisse des ombres aussi délicates. J'aurai bien envie de prendre ce petit chemin.
Très agréable photo qui nous donne un peu de chaleur.
Amitiés

Bonjour Philippe,
Une photo avec profondeur et perspective très jolies.
Les arbres forment un sentier qui se perd très loin, ils capturent le regard, et ils invitent à te promener parmi eux.
Bon cadrage, et une jolie combinaison de la lumière, les ombres et des belles couleurs.
Une note avec un poème joli, aussi.
Respects,
Josep

weswang (18223) 2006-03-31 12:33

Hi Philippe, I see your meaning of the small forest. Good catch of the perspective view along the walkway and the shadows created by the sunlight. Nice contrast and good sharpness.

Xalkida (11740) 2006-03-31 12:55

Salut Philippe

Very nice and calm scene with great depth and perspective! Excellent shadows of the trees on the ground. Nice job.

Salut Philippe,
A small forest in a wonderful light!
I like the linear perspective,the graphism and the pleasant color palette.Nice poem to go along with it too!
Have a nice weekend,
Hermann

singuanti (15240) 2006-03-31 21:53

Hi Philippe. You did well in finding a bit of a path in the woods to find some perspective and depth. The side light helps a lot in this environment. Well done Philippe.

berek (28875) 2006-03-31 22:53

Salut Philippe
Beautiful lighting among these trees and a simple but very effective composition. I like the way the tall verticals of the tree trunks are balanced by the long horizontal shadows. Excellent perspective.

Seems to be a very peaceful and almost idylling this little forest of you Philippe. Good use here of the path leading through the trees.

Didi (36064) 2006-04-01 6:05

Bonjour Philippe
Tu es bien entouré dans ton fief estival.
Cela donne envie de se ballader et de photographier à tout moment de la journée sans être obligé d'utiliser son véhicule.
Après 14 h 30 essaye le matin de bonne heure, surtout pour l'été prochain.

cjmm (4019) 2006-04-01 7:38

Salut Philippe,

Beautiful photo and poem, and a real invitation to walk between those trees.

I specially like the natural feeling of the photo, almost like if I was there. Also, as Nicole says, this is a photo that is nice to look at.

Amitiés, saludos,
Carlos

Bonsoir, cher Philippe;
sans doute,le printemps c'est arrivé! La vue invite pour une balade entre les arbres plein de soleil.
Mais je suis presque sur que le vraie point d'intérêt c'est derrière les arbres...
Amicalement

Bonjour dear Philippe
An old post of yours, very different as you yourself said, but with a very pleasant composition with the perspective of the trees & the long shadows cutting across the rows. Like the play between light & shade. Very nice!
Best Regards
