More monochrome.
This, my friends, is a tree. A tree in a field, surrounded by fog.

I do believe this is two trees.

bruce: just chop all the others down?
I haven't got the foggiest how you did this, Clay.

I'm proud to say I didn't get the title. I'm just a mere dumbass.

So pretty Clayton - I'm digging the fog.

PS - you know your a flicker addict when doing the daily crossword puzzle you answer is Clay Wells and not Clay Aiken - but hey it fit. Sure did take me a while to figure out why the other answers around it didn't fit. I'm on Flickr way too much!

me like lots and lots :D
sorry been a bad flickr buddy, snowed under in all my uni work! :(
glad to see good ol' monotone out again :D

I'm sorry but I did not catch that title at first....my head must have been lost in a fog...But a sweet cap and process anyway!
Jeff Engelhardt (42 months ago | reply)
From, quite appropriately, the Oxford English Dictionary, a tome with which one would hope a certain brit is familiar:
monotone: noun a continuing sound that is unchanging in pitch (no other definitions available)
Clay, I wholeheartedly agree with Josh that this continuous sound that does not change in pitch is fascinating. I particularly like how the pitch fails to change from both the left to the right AND from the top to the bottom. Friggin' amazing.

Jeff did you just inflict a burn using the Oxford English Dictionary? That is nerdy and cool at the same time. Who knew there was such a combination...

I once toured with the Beastie Boys. Despite my age, wisdom, and - one would hope - better judgement, the fluid rhymes and rhythms of rap have always enticed me, despite the rattling and shaking of my old bones.
This brotha sees no color.

A moody /pretty shot

@Windy - It's my lifelong goal to coolify nerdiness. I have met with limited success to date.
LuAnn Hunt (42 months ago | reply)
I think I'm in a fog... so foggy around here...
Runninghounds Photography (42 months ago | reply)
So...does that mean there was fog when you shot this? Great shot Clay and great use of the fog.
Jeff Engelhardt (42 months ago | reply)
no matter how many times I reload this page, the sound never changes.
that's *so* weird.
David.Keith (42 months ago | reply)
Every time I hear this, I run to the street waiting for the dude in the white panel van....he never comes, and I cry....I have money.....

Pretty cool shot Clay! There is a lot of coolness about this photo - the balance really stands out on how the fog surrounds the tree evenly, not fading.
