Ciao Christian,
bellissima immagine invernale. Suggestivo effetto creato dalla silouette della pianta e del suo riflesso sulla neve. La bella luce di sfondo all'albero si contrapposizione piacevolmente con le nubi minacciose sulla dx creando dei meravigliosi giochi di luci e ombre sulla neve. Si vedono risplendere i cristalli della neve in primo piano, complimenti.
Buon fine settimana
Anna

Hi, Chris.
I recognized immediately your own style looking at galery ! In less 1 second, I knew that this one was yours.
Excellent minimalist landscape, full of poetry.
I like it a lot.
Best regards. Grazyna.

Hello Christian,
Superbe photo avec une superbe ambiance et cette arbre seul qui est très bien composé,j'adore l'ombre énorme que la lumière juste au dessus de lui crée et le noir et blanc est bien choisi,très bon coup d'oeil.
Bye
Manu

Ciao caro Christian,
potresti avere inventato un nuovo sport: Il biathlon fotografico, sci da fondo e macchina fotografica al posto della carabina. Grande idea! :-)
Questo tuo raro B&W è veramente suggestivo, specialmente per il piacevole effetto che dà l'ombra dell'albero sulla neve e per quel bellissimo cielo drammatico che si confonde con il paesaggio innevato. Bravissimo!
Ciao, passa un buon fine settimana!
Paolo

Hello Christian,
Very nice minimalist B&W. Love the shadow & black clouds. Regards. Latiff.

Hallo Christian,
gut, dass Du den Baum perfekt vor die Sonne platziert hast. Das gibt dem Foto ein angenehmes Gleichgewicht, und lenkt durch die stärkeren Kontraste zusätzlich die Aufmerksamkeit auf den Baum.
Liebe Grüsse,
Johannes

Hi christian,

What's beautiful nature scene!
I like the composition, gentle color tone and poetic mood.
And, the shadow of tree in right side draws out a good effect for the whole.
Perfect!

Regards,
mikio

Hi Christian!
Deine Fotobeschreibung bringt mich zum Schmunzeln...
Das Foto selbst jedoch finde ich großartig!
Herrliches S/W, tolles Motiv, schöne Kontraste, feines Schattenspiel!

King-size bed with pale silk cover with the plant pattern.. resembles delicate spider-net of naked branches painted by a japanese brush wet of heavy, black ink..
The wall behind repeats the motive.. a lonely tree supporting shiny cloudy sky..
human touch seems too clumsy to made all that.. who did it then?
lighter and more transparent than air and dream.. hmm.. :)
with compliments from Poland to Austria, agn

wunderbares Bild, perfekt in s/w! Einfach und beeindruckend mit dem Baum, den Schatten, die Wolken und den Schnee.

Genieße dein WE! Viele Grüße

Take care, Ivana

hallo christian!
beeindruckende aufnahme. der aufbau des bildes ist perfekt, die wolkenstimmung beeindruckend, der schatten des baumes, die grauschattierungen.... mir gefällts dass du viel im eigenen land fotografierst! es gibt so viele schöne motive bei uns die oft zu wenig beachtung finden wenn man hier zuhause ist!

alles liebe, juliette

coco (30439) 2010-02-24 5:08

Hi Christian.

Perfect and very smart black and white landscape. The light and sky are very dramatic and I love your photo.

Well done.

Extraordinary at once soft and disturbing atmosphere.

Hi Christian!
I like very much this beautiful picture. The atmosphere is amazing and B&W surely enhances the dramatic tones.

The shadow of the tree in contrast with the strong light behind, catches the eye!
What to say about the arising clouds, magnificent!

Warm regards,
Athanasios.
