Between sun and shadows, a photo from Midi-Pyrenees, South

Photographer's Note

Shadows that stretch out on the snow and rays of sun that sneak through the branches of this tree ... it was well worth a picture.
A photo taken on the heights of Val d'Azun near Col de Bazes from a cross-country ski run.

Bonjour Jean,
Effectivement, ça valait le coup de prendre cette photo, avec le soleil "divin" en plein milieu de l'arbre ! Belles décorations sur la neige, formées par les ombres longilignes.
Merci du partage !
Amicalement.
Marie-Louise.

Hello Jean,
The well controlled backlight and the long shadows cast by the trees make for a very atmospheric image. The whole is well framed with excellent colours and clarity.

Bonjour Jean,

J'apprécie le jeu entre les zones éclairées et les zones ombragées. La prise de vue permet de voir les détails des arbres et des traces sur la neige. Une bonne gestion de la lumière en contre-jour qui ne nuit pas au rendu des couleurs. Bonne journée.

Bonjour Jean,

Cette photo ressemble beaucoup à celle que j'ai postée aujourd'hui. Un contre jour qui donne à réfléchir lorsqu'on tente l'expérience. Pour moi un pont et pour toi des arbres.

Amicalement

Hello Jean,
You handled the backlight in this photo really well and the tree in front of the sun produced some fascinating shadows and textures in the snow. Very well done!

Terrific winter sun image, Jean! At first I thought the ground here was covered in snow. Then I began to doubt that. Then I changed my mind again. Thanks for your note :))

Benny

annjackman (22563) 2019-03-12 10:40

Hello Jean,
This is a well composed image that accentuates the long shadows and the crisp snow. The sun is cleverly behind the tree giving a super sunburst effect.
Beautiful artistry.
Kind Regards, Ann

ikeharel (95016) 2019-03-13 1:07

Bonjour Jean,
Sunrays through the branches in beautiful star-pattern, and long shadows added good of depth to the compo. Black snow as a result of the backlight effect.
Au revoir,
Ike

alvaraalto (34678) 2019-03-13 2:23

Bonjour Jean,
A splendid picture where the sun shines so brightly through the trees that you would expect the shadows to go out.
A beautiful backlight shot where you brilliant managed to keep the contrast in balance.
An outstanding achievement.
Have a nice day, groet Rob

Hi Jean.
Intelligent and wonderful photo, you have used the tree very well to remove strength from the sun, behind the branches of the tree, even so it shines with intensity, I like the long shadows of the trunks of the trees, as well as the human footprints in the snow, which gives a nice effect of shadows and lights.
With good sharpness and optimal lighting.
Well done. I like very much.
You have a good day.
Very best regards.
Luis.

quovadis (2876) 2019-03-13 21:19

Salut Jean-Saint.

A great presentation of yours, congratulations.

The sunrays form a perfect star-like image by passing through the naked branches of the tree. Lovely shades of the tree seen on the blanket of snow, clear blue sky work well within the square frame. Superb composition and observation. TFS!!!

Bonjour Jean

Tu t'en es bien tiré pour l'exposition, il y a du détail sur le sol enneigé malgré ce franc contrejour et pas de flare.
On s'y croirait

gervaso (24713) 2019-03-14 16:11

Hello, Jean!

The sun has been perfectly placed behind the tree, creating an interesting shadow on the ground, which was captured also with very good texture! Excellent colors and sharpness! Beautiful job!

Ciao Jean
eccellente controluce, bellissime le ombre sulla neve, oltre agli alberi, mi piacciono tutte quelle tracce nere.
Saluti
Carlo

PaulVDV (44848) 2019-03-15 10:44

Bonjour Jean,
La position basse du soleil, très beau en forme d'étoile, crée de belles longues ombres des arbres.
Les arbres sont proches les uns des autres, mais les ombres s’étendent sur une plus grande surface.
Amicalement, Paul

abmdsudi (76219) 2019-03-15 21:45
