I posted a photo of this tree back in February entitled - "Waiting for Spring..." - http://365project.org/vignouse/365/2014-02-26 When I passed by today, the scene looked very different and it seemed a shame not to capture the difference that 4 months can make.
Such a wonderful specimen of tree. LOVE how you framed it here. I'd love to see it covered in snow. You should do a 4 seasons version of this tree. I did one like it last year here: http://365project.org/amandal/365-year-2/2013-11-09
@amandal@anazad511 Thanks both - snow might be a bit ambitious for this area Amanda, but I will probably be able to manage a pic with heavy hoar frost clinging to the branches... but I'd rather not think about that just yet ;-)
@graemestevens it's a slightly different PoV Graeme... but the main difference is that the original was shot with a 17 mm lens on an APS-C sensor camera, and this one was shot with a 8mm lens, on the same camera.
Awesome! The mad wide-angle creates the best natural framing from the leaves and shadow of the tree behind the camera. Actually it somewhat resembles an eyeball to me :)
I went and looked at the winter edition and wanted to see what I posted. I didn't don't know where I was. But I remember it and loved those tree bone pictures. But isn't it amazing what a little sunshine and water can do. Nice framing too.
