Tree - which way up?!
|
This week I have been out and about in Oxford and I loved the colourful leaves. I created an image of a reflection which left me with a common puzzle I have, which way up should the image be presented? I shared this thought with the members of SheClicks and the responses were not unanimous so I thought I'd share both versions here along with a diptych. What do you think, to rotate or not or the diptych? |

Autumn berries
Another picture of the floor but this time it's a car park floor! I love the jewel red berries mixed in with the golden leaves. It's such a wonderful time of the year for pictures.
Leaves in the woods
Another image from the woods, in particular, the floor of the woods, there’s just so much to explore in between the bottom of the trees.
Golden Evergreens
|
I always used to think that all conifers were ‘evergreen’ and was surprised to find out that larch trees are deciduous. I love the golden colour the needles turn in autumn, they seem to glow like stars in the dark woods. |

Close Up Photographer of the Year 7
18600125
I am so pleased to learn that one of my images has been shortlisted for the Close Up Photographer of the Year competition. This was the caption I included with my submission:
Whilst out for a walk I crossed a small bridge over a shallow pool. The water was moving across the autumn leaves lying just under the water’s surface. I was drawn to all the lines in the ripples which I thought made the scene look a little like stained glass. I also loved all the different colours in the leaves from the bright oranges to the dull, deep browns. There was a little bit of blue sky reflecting in the water which added an extra colour to the scene. In post production I wanted to bring out the colours of the scene and the patterns in the water.
