What do I say to you? by marlboromaam

What do I say to you?

Sometimes, it's good to get back to basics when shots get too cluttered and any message the photographer may want to convey is completely missed by the viewer. If you had to say, in just one word, what this photo speaks to you, what would it be? Don't try to be clever or even original, just say whatever comes off the top of your head. =) I'm leaving the tags blank on this one. Honest feedback is welcome!

Uploading a day early since I have some errands and chores to tend to the next couple of days.
this is lovely,,so calming to look at,,I think its the colour and the repetition of lines that I like so much....my one (sorry) word is 'calm'

Floating or flying... the shadow looks a bit like a little flying elephant to me... lol maybe strange huh.

Ps... please feel free to pin that shot you asked about :) Thanks so much for the compliment and honour :)

It looks like a boat, so my word is 'floating'. I like the image very much.

My title would be 'Green lines'. Love the shadow though.

Leaf ride, sorry that's two. I am with Janet, the leaf looks similar to the bottom of a boat & your shadow is enjoying the ride. Lovely abstract & use of light

When I looked at it first I thought the top part of the shadow was a "Butterfly Resting" but I see that isn't it. great catch. Simple is wonderful.

Great light

my word would be 'power' as in the power of the sun to give such a glow and put the shadow on the leaf.

I was also going to say simplicity.
But, transparency would be my second thought.

Freedom and independence. From what I see, this is a fledgling about to fly away from the nest. Mama bird has her back turned. Knowing she's about to lose her baby, she doesn't want to look but knows it's the right thing to do.
