The grain and the mist almost make it seem like we are looking at this scene through a dirty window. I like the effect.
Although there's not much here except the leafless trees, I like the simplicity of the composition and also the mood of the image.
If you had shot this on digital, it wouldn't have been half as good. I still prefer film, especially for black and white.
Cheers,
Ben

Hi Wanda,

I was reading your personnal introduction and I understand that you are a professional photographer. You’ve been shooting for quite a long period, judging this photo taken in 2003 and although I’m a newcomer to photography world, I think a K1000 is an argentic camera. So I guess you know everything about development, darkroom, dodging and burning... You certainly have an advantage, having learn with basic rules and fundamentals, like manual focus, exposure time and so on. There’s a lot of people on this site that get interested by photography with digital camera, just like me, but you’re a true photgrapher.

Looking at the countries you’ve visited, you’re also a true traveler and it’s impressive to look at the different and exotic places you’ve been to.

This is a gloomy and melhancolic image, about autumn and it’s charateristic weather. I like the effect of fading trees in the background and the grainy texture.

Have a nice week Wanda!

André
