Avenue

Posted by AG (London, United Kingdom) on 12 September 2006 in Plant & Nature.

These trees were planted as a funneled avenue of access so, if that’s the way they appear, there should be no surprise. But the intensity of that effect in certain light is striking. There is a feeling one wants to hurry through, drawn out into the sunshine and up the winding path to whatever is then revealed.

* really great one! the composition is wonderfull... Almost abstract. It wants to walk me down that path too.[reply]javga @ 2006-09-12 09:19:43
* I like the world that you present here so much.[reply]Hildegarde @ 2006-09-12 10:10:33
* This path would bring out the child in everyone of us, wanting to rush down and through the path of trees.

I like the serene colors of this image, so there's also a part of me that would want to walk slowly and enjoy each step of the walk.[reply]micki @ 2006-09-12 10:15:59
* A like a lot![reply]GatoZarolho @ 2006-09-12 11:02:40

* My gosh! You are a magnificent photographer. Why did I not add you to my "favorites" list before?[reply]Ces @ 2006-09-12 15:20:53
* It's beautiful as always. Such places are difficult to imagine having access to. Here, this would no doubt be on private property. I love the tones you used in processing. It definitely shows the feelings you express in your remarks.[reply]Sherri @ 2006-09-12 16:07:04

* There's an amazing frisson where the branches meet, it's a very strong energy to me. Contrasts beautifully with the structured classical orderliness of the gardens.[reply]fotojo @ 2006-09-13 03:35:36
* I like the composition here.[reply]Erik - HedinMedia @ 2006-09-13 09:49:44

* The golden light is so amazing, and the line of sight ist really beautiful. [reply]Uwe @ 2006-09-14 20:12:08
* Beautiful image. The light is diffused just perfectly through the meeting leaves.[reply]geof @ 2006-09-16 15:11:45
* I like this a lot. The light through the dense foliage is lovely. I bet this is a beautiful sight in the fall.[reply]Amanda @ 2006-09-16 16:06:36
* I really like the detail and tone in this, it seems dreamy and makes me want to see more.[reply]miles @ 2006-09-17 07:21:57
* Beautiful symmetry and grace is evident in these trees. Such order is seldom seen nowadays. This is a very appealling image that your sepia tones enhance. Very well done.[reply]Jeff @ 2006-09-18 11:08:25
* Big thanks to Hildegarde, Micki, Cristina, Cat, Lin, Ces, Sherri, Joanne, Amanda, Javga, Anton, Shazeen, Karl, Michael, Erik, Gio, Uwe, Geof, Miles and Jeff for your supportive Comments on this one.
I did forget to clone out a nice lady walking the path in what I felt was the best image from a set of six. She’s gone, now, and on her way back to Fleetwood![reply]AG @ 2006-09-18 13:08:54
