These willows are standing behind a church that is the only building left of a small village that had to dissapear to make place for heavy industry. Like the church, only the first willow seems to be able to survive.

I should know by now that photos like this don't do well on DPChallenge :)

These willows are standing behind a church that is the only building left of a small village that had to dissapear to make place for heavy industry. Like the church, only the fist willow seems to be able to survive.
I added high contrast on purpose and did a lot of fine-tuning to give the scenery the dramtic atmosphere that suits it best.

The photo doesn't show to full advantage on a bright monitor. I've got a print hanging on the wall in my livingroom and it's looks much better that way. The only way for you to find out is by buying a print on DCPrints though :)

Nice leading line of flora, well done, especially using the sky as negative space at the top. Good one.

The sky looks a little pixelated. The bottom part of the picture looks a little overexposed. It just seems a little on the bright side ot me

Great composition.

Good composition. Very bright, however.

nice perspective work... the exposure seems a tad hot, but the detail is fine... maybe a touch too much post processing? - setzler

Love the composition. Looks oversharpened, and shooting this when the light is not as harsh would look much better

cant wait to see the detail on this picture. i am sure that it has some meaning.

I personally do not like the washed out look of this photo. It does, however, have drama.

Actually, this picture looks a little better in the thumbnail. I don't really care for the overexposed look of it. Perhaps a little over-sharpened.

grainy but like it
04/22/2003 11:02:21 AM
A little too much sky, good perspective.
04/22/2003 03:06:00 AM
Very overexposed and grainy, but I like your subjects and pattern you've created.

Intersting composition but it looks a little over processed.
