Winterscape 3
I'm not sure about this one......

Everytime I visit Austria I am fascinated by the potential patterns in the forest trees, but without a strong subject or leading lines the overall final image seems weak?

Would make a good jigsaw puzzle tho' :biggrin:

Converted to B&W with a touch of "warm up" filter

Have often stood before such places and though "Why no hay barn here?" "why no rotten old fence leading in..." Oh well. It is why i took up wildlife ;)

Not sure to be honest Mike, on the fence. :wavey:

Can see the thought behind this Mike
But like Neil can't quite decide :smile:

I quite like it but the trees are 'regularly' spaced enough to give it the delineation that it needs. I have tried the same myself and this shot is better than any of mine so kudos

I think it works if you crop it slightly on the righ hand side.
wonderful patterns indeed!

greetings,

I like the idea but nothing seems make the eye dwell. Work in progress I think.
