Project 52: Week 7 - Winter Trees

These trees line the Avenue du Chevalier Ponthus which in turn lines the east bank of Paimpont Lake. I just find their shapes, and the delicate tracery of the smaller branches, fascinating and beautiful.

Definitely BoB (Best on Black) this one.

I love the skeleton aspect of trees in the winter I find them more appealing than how they are in the summer.

[Joan Robillard]

I am laughing because I posted a road shot too. Yours is much better. At 8F I preferred to shot from the car. The trees look frosty.

[Richard Sayer]

@joansmor Not frosty, but the trees were wet and the setting sun was reflecting off them.

[Louis A. Sousa]

Nice shot. I'll send you a cup of snow and ice if you really want some.

[MashaPix]

I love the delicacy of the white trees... 💕

[Jane Pittenger]

Wonderful

[Rosan]

Yes the shapes of the tress in winter can be mesmerizing. Lovely image.

[Debs Stott]

Their revealed shapes are beautiful, as is the light.

[Taffy]

Wonderful lighting in the scene -- almost looks infrared.

[Margaret Obey]

It's wonderful how looking on black brings out such fabulous detail.

Perfect composition for B & W. I just love the French countryside and can't wait for this years' visit - I'm getting withdrawal symptoms looking at your photos!

Wonderful composition, light in this b/w shot

[Merrelyn]

Lovely image, the trees are beautiful.

[Margo Sayer]

What a great capture! Grinning ear to ear with the idea of sun 'changing' water into frost!
