A survivor

A trip to the Oregon Coast last month. We were gifted with wind, rain, sleet, sunshine,clouds, all wrapped up in beauty.

Wonderful shot

[LManning (Laura)]

That is stunning. Fantastic tonal range.

[Mags]

Wow! Fabulous black and white.

[Christine Joy]

Well done. I love the contrast with the ocean. Gnarly trees are so compelling...fun to draw, too!

[Yao RL]

This really conveys the feelings of a survivor.

[Milanie]

Super processing of a really neat scene

[Krista Marson]

perfectly dramatic

[Ann H. LeFevre]

This is very moody and dramatic! The twisted trunk really brings out the battle of wind and weather which finally overtook this poor tree.

Thank you so very much, I love the coast. It can be very stormy and also soothing at the same time. I forgot to tag this as IR

[Call me Joe]

Very impressive 👌

[Jane Pittenger]

Looks familiar these days! This could be a Graeme stevens’

[Babs]

works so well in black and white.

[amyK]

Excellent

[Shutterbug]

Very atmospheric. Nice shot of the dramatic sky. Good choice for b&w.

[Graeme Stevens]

Love this, awesome

[MamaBec]

Fantastic capture. We just got home from a week-long trip down the Oregon Coast. It was wonderful but, there’s no place like home.

[Diane]

Amazing. The B&W emphasizes the stark scene so well.

Thank you so very kindly. It was a kinda day that the wind actually stopped you in your tracks at times. I truly appreciate the power of the ocean.

[Walks @ 7]

@eudora Thank you so much. The IR really gives the clouds a chance to pop.

[Rob Z]

Wow - this is so stark and dramatic...

[Wylie]

[haskar]

Fabulous b&w capture.

[Inga Johansson]

Awesome composition. I love trees (or parts of tress) with character.
