I always seem to be looking at and photographing trees from a distance. For a change today I decided to stand under them and point the camera up to the sky. I used the Nikon S9050 on its widest view. Some I couldn't get really close to as there were ditches in the way. No telling until I got home exactly how they would turn out as it wasn't possible to see the LCD screen while taking the shots.
Maybe I should call them a Squirrel's Eye View:
Colour shots:
B/W shots (taken by accident as the awkward way of holding the camera in one hand meant I kept catching the menu change by accident):
they're really beautiful - both color and b&w. trees are magnificent.
ReplyDeleteTWG - it makes a change to get a different aspect on things.
DeleteThese kind of shots are always interesting John.
ReplyDeleteIt certainly makes a change Roy.
DeletePlaying catch-up John, I love these images. Nice work. This is something I do find myself doing too - with and without leaves on the trees. I find I’m a drawn to the mature ones at Edinburgh Botanical gardens – so many species to photograph.
ReplyDeleteShirl: I'm trying to catch up as well. I do love to see the shapes achieved by mature trees.
