Hello Elzbieta,

this is a very good composition, the colours are wonderful
and I also like the sharpness. I suppose you've used a polarisation filter, a good choice for this kind of a photo.

Maybe the cropping could be a little tighter but this works really well this way too.

Czesc Elu,
Fantastyczna fotka! Kolory sa rewelacyjne. Niebo wyglada niesamowcie. Ostrosc i szczegoly pierwsza klasa. INteresujacy DOF.
Gratulacje!

Witaj Ela
Rzeczywiście klasyczna kompozycja a światło dokładnie takie jak lubię. Ładne kontrasty, czyżby jakiś polarek był w użyciu? Dobra kompozycja z drogą prowadzącą oko wgłąb kadru.
Pozdrawiam
Jacek

O Ela!
Kusisz Ukrainą ;D
Kompozycja klasyczna, ale jaka soczysta i wyrazista :). Podoba mi się widok na drzewko rosnące na pagórku porysowanym polną ścieżynką. Ładne niebo oraz kontrast między błekitem a zielenią.
Widoczek wprost orzeźwiający :)
Pozdrawiam

Hi Elzbieta,
I like this effect of counterlight working like a polarizer. The green of the grass and the blue of the sky are great.
Regards, gerrit

Hi Elzbieta,
a classic compo but very well captured..stunning colours and the contrast between the green of the grass and the blue sky is amazing...excellent exposure and set up of your camera!
Regards
Igor

Hi Elzbieta,
strong colours and also strong light in that simple and effective composition. The shadow of the tree and the darker hills create high contrasts. The sky is fascinating.
Lieben Gruss, Ulf

Hi Elzbieta.

"A lonely tree,
Wind blows by..
Bright sunny days..
Sweet little bird,
A blue jay
Said to him:
'Wait for me here,
Till i reach back'
He waited, long..
Cold dark nights passed,
Still he waited...
For his love..
For his lost love.."
************************

DREAMY IS THIS VISION,
LOVELY IS THIS WAIT...

Well captured in frame..
Wondrous colours and nature !!

Witam!
Kolejny ciekawy obrazek z Ukrainy. Że też ja nie pochodziłem po tamtejszych górach. A była organizowana fakultatywna wycieczka. Ale zgłosiła się na nią tylko jedna osoba. Fajne zdjęcie ale chyba jest zbyt ciemno w dolnych partiach?
Pozdrawiam.
Marek

By exposing for the sky you have captured a good image back-lit by the sun. The almost silhouetted tree is perfectly placed in the frame atop the little hill.
Kath

Hello Elzbieta,
Rich colours and fine details!
The composition is attractive, the tree catches my eyes right away...
That dirt track is an interesting element, taking me into the scenery!
Greetings,

Hi Elzbieta!

I always like photos of lonely trees and this is no exception. In fact is one of the best in this "theme" I have seen in TE. Simple but excellent composition and beautiful "heavy" colours. Congratulations!

Hercules

Hi Elzbieta,
Wonderful shot!
Great composition, light and colors...
Really good job!

Olá Elzbieta

Maravilha de foto desta linda paisagem. As cores e contraste estăo ótimos, o céu de um azul impecável. Meus parabéns pelo trabalho.

Hi Elzbieta,

Bonjour Elzbieta,
une photo qui un peu comme la mienne est sous exposée dans le but de faire contraster certaines choses et exposer au mieux les zones plus claires.
Je trouve le cadrage trčs réussi et ce ciel séduisant.
Best regards.
Daniel.

Wonderful nature and landscape. Wonderful green and blue colours. Nice image.

Hello Elzbieta -

The simplest of images are the best and this goes for this one. A lone tree on a hill, how simple can we get. Making the choice to back light and silhouette was a very good and dramatic choice. The one thing I don't like about the image is the very strong polarization along the upper right corner. When using a polarizer at higher elevations the less obvious the effect the better. Just my opinion though. Well done.

Thank you for sharing.

John

Hi Elzbieta.

As you told us, excellent compo with the tree breaking it.

The colours and contrasts are also good.

Rgs, Oscar

Hi Elzbieta
A pleasant compo of this lone backlit tree with intense colors and contrast and good positioning of the picture's elements
Good work
Cheers
Marilyn

Hi Elzbieta, very powerful this one. The lonely and silhoutted tree striking quite a pose against the beautifully rendered sky. A classic compo yes, but full atmosphere! Lovely work.
Have a fine weekend,
Bert

Belle photo de cet arbre seul sur le passage du chemin de promenade,et en toile de fond ce ciel légčrement nuageux. Amitiés Thomas

Hi Elzbieta,
I openned your photo and then completely forgot, and proceeded to upload mine. Such a coincidence really to have uploaded the same kind of composition. WOnderful color and superb sharpness. Very nice placement of the tree on top of the hill.
I wish you an excellent weekend. Best regards. Salvator.

Beautiful picture with astonishing sky.
Very nice shot !..

Witaj Elzbieto

Sliczna, minimalistyczna kompozycja - cos w sam raz dla kogos, kto uwielbia wedrowki po bezdrozach. Drzewo pozostajac w cieniu wyglada bardzo tajemniczo. Podoba mi sie rowniez soczysty odcien zielonej trawy i blekit nieba.

serdeczne pozdrowienia, Wojtek

Hello Elzbieta, Graphiquement it is perfect, the clouds marry the relief and this tree well placed at the center of this frank green and makes a splendid image with this solitary tree, you captured well this moment a composition simple, but always effective, sincerely...................Bonjour Elzbieta, Graphiquement c'est parfait, les nuages épousent le relief et cet arbre bien placé au centre de ce vert franc et fait une splendide image avec cet arbre solitaire, tu as bien capturé ce moment

Hi Elmec
What a nice landscape and place to see,
Sky color and that litle clouds looks amazing
TFS/Kind regards

Witaj Elżbieto!

Pięknie w tej Czarnogórze. Kolejny znakomity pejzaż, drzewo stanowi mocny punkt kompozycji. Wspaniałym jej uzupełnieniem jest wijąca się poprzez kadr dróżka Ładne kontrastowe kolory.

pozdrawiam

Jacek

Witaj Elu,
Kompozycja może i klasyczna jednak smiała lekko pod światło dzięki czemu tem kawałeczek świata stał się bardziej tajemniczy i zachecający do eksploracji. Klasyczne piękno w bardzo dobrym wykonaniu.

Hi Elzbieta. Yes classic composition and classic fluffy white clouds also. Excellent colour and sharpness also. Well captured and presented. Thanks for sharing.

Good work Elzbieta. You use to the best the lone tree in the compo, place it well and include just the right proportion of the curved landscape. The low light is just as it can be - but works well in this setting.

Hi Elzbieta.
Foto molto bella,forse un pň scura, comunque molto ben composta.
Ciao Renzo

Witaj Elzbieta,
I like the lonely trees and this is well framed, the scene is a little dark because the lighting was difficult but I agree this composition.
Regards
Christian

Hi Elzbieta,
Nice landscape and interesting composition with this alone tree, well placed in the frame and good effect with this trail in diagonal, strong colours.

Hi Elzbieta,

This lonely tree looks almost painted against the bright sky. Excellent colors, sharpness and light.
