In The Middle Of Nowhere Photo

Photographer’s Note

The last one of this little serie of this tree over the Leman lake. If you wants to know the story about this tree, see the last one.

In this picture I like specially this impresion that there is no horizon, that the tree is flying.

There are not correction of colours, is natural. Just the sunset and the misty and be there to take the picture. Sometimes it's easy to take a nice picture, all you need is to be there.

Hello Javier,

You were there ... just at the right moment so the scene could be captured!
Although simple, the scene is vast ... it goes on forever!
I really like the mood that is created by the single tree, gaining friendship from its shadow, in this lilac space!

Kind regards,
Bev :-)

Salut Javier,
C'est une très belle composition minimaliste avec cette petite île perdue au milieu du lac dans un océan de couleurs pastelles.
Bonsoir
Marc

Salut Javier,

Pas mal celle la aussi, tres differente des precedentes, mais vraiment bien aussi.
Les elements sont minimalistes mais ca met encore plus en valeur l arbre isole sur son ile. La brume donne un effet mysterieux en masquant la separation entre l eau et le ciel.

Cette photo me fait penser au film "Fountain" que j avais vu l annee derniere. La forme de l arbre me fait vraiment penser a des scenes de ce film.

Ca ferait un tres beau tirage A3 :-)

Yves.

Hello Javier,
stunning moody shot with the "floating" tree so well placed and the absence of the horizon giving a great feeling of mystery and silence. The gradient in the sky and diving in the water is wonderful to look at. A very appealing shot! I like it!
Thanks for sharing and regards

Hello Javier!
Extremely simple, but also a very nice one.
The two factors that make this picture is the composition and the colors.
You have been there in exactly the right moment to get the lovely blue/red/yellowish colors and the fine gradients between.
Well done!
Regards, Jon.

Hola Javier! Una serie excelente! Es cierto que a veces sólo hay que estar allí, pero además hay que saber hacer una imagen interesante, componerla bien, cuidar la luz... y tú eso lo haces magistralmente. Me ha gustado toda la serie, y no sabría muy bien con cuál quedarme. De esta me encanta la banda rosa y la sensación de espacio. En pequeño no se aprecian los pájaros, y es una pena, pero en grande tiene que ser magnífica. Tu isla-continente te ha dado mucho juego! Muy buen trabajo!
Un abrazo,
Inés

Hello Javier,
"j'aime bien l'idée et ton cadrage est parfait, mais je verrais une image plus contrastée.."non je rigole ;o)

C'est une jolie compo épurée et un titre judicieusement choisi

Una imagen simple y hermosa en la inmensidad del lago, me gusta mucho el fondo difuso sin horizonte que, aumenta la sensación de infinito.

Felicidades amigo Javier.

Saludos.

Hola Xavier

La composición de esta foto es muy elegante, casi de ensueño. No se si te ayudaste de algún filtro suavizador, pero los tonos apoyados por la escasa luz, dan un toque mágico al escenario.

El motivo principal (árbol) está bien descentrado, y los reflejos que se derivan de el, son inmejorables. Felicitaciones.

Oh gran mestre.......el teu poder és inmens, màgic, místic i misteriós ( és l'anomenat efecte IMMM )....................quina relaxació i benestar d'esperit!!!
Xavier és una passada tot el que transmet aquesta idílica imatge, no ens cansem de mirar-la, les suaus tonalitats i l'atmòsfera envolvent tenen un efecte hipnòtic (vaja que ens cau la baba!!).

Bravo, c'est une délice mon ami!!
Una abraçada molt forta!! Jordi

Bonjour Javier,

Cette photo est très simple, mais c'est justement ce qui fait sa force. Effectivement, on devine à peine la ligne d'horizon et on ne sait pas vraiment si on est dans l'eau ou dans les airs.

Bonne journée - Franco

Hi Javier,
Simple, but more than excellent photo. The lonely tree looks great in the huge and wide lake and is very well placed in the composition. The colours in the sky are also wonderful. Very well seen and captured, thanks a lot for sharing!
Regards,
Lars
