Lonely
Story Of The Image : Well, I begin to like single trees in the middle of the image. Why ? Don't really know but it seem to be pleasant and calming to me. This tree I shot the 3rd time now and this time it was fully sorrounded by fog. Uuuh and how I liked that fog.

Wow, very beautiful. I like the feeling of loneliness and silence this image displays. Great work!

incredible fog and compo. congratullations

Von der Komposition her ist es klasse, auch der Nebel gefällt. Dass die Mitte des Horizontes etwas überstrahlt ist (zumindest wirkt es so auf mich), damit kann ich mich nicht ganz anfreunden. Aber ich denke mal, das war so gewollt.

Love the leading lines and the mist!

There is a great sense of depth provided by the composition with the tracks leading into the image and the tree half hidden by the fog, with the fog providing a wonderful mood at the same time. The b/w conversion reduces the image to structures and composition, which is effective here. I am not sure, though, whether I would prefer a non-centered composition with the tree a bit to the right and the tracks as a diagonal from the left to the right - matter of taste, I guess. :-)

du hast die Situation unwahrscheinlich gut festgehalten - es ist fast so, als ab man die Feuchtigkeit des Nebels spüren kann. Der Weg gibt dem Bild den letzten Schliff - es ist so, als ob der Weg in den Nebel führt und der Baum die letzte "Station" vor dem Nirvana ist (der Baum ohne Weg in dem anderen Bild fnde ich pers. etwas langweilig). Ich wäre vielleicht etwas weiter in die Hocke gegangen, um den Weg "flacher" darzustellen.

Very cool. It kinda looks like it could be a book cover. I can just see it now with a red banner over the top. Nice shot.

Das ist ein echter Kwerfeldein! Woran ich das erkenne? Ganz einfach: EIn Baum, ein Weg und ein Gefühl von Verlassenheit dem dennoch etwas Wohliges innewohnt. Mehr der Worte braucht es nicht... schöne Arbeit. ;o)

wow, wow, wow. i love this. the gradient is sooo smooth. i can't help but wish for a little less contrast in foreground, but i'm only saying this because you like constructive comments. if this were somebody else's picture, i wouldn't be "complaining" :)

Hey cooles Bild!!
Gut gefällt mir, dass die bildführenden Linie auf dem Acker durch den Nebel gebrochen werden und eben nicht ganz bis zum Baum führen.
Aber mit dem Bildschitt komm ich nicht so klar. Weiß nicht in 3:2 wäre mehr Platz für den Verlauf im Himmel und würde mir wohl besser gefallen.
Gruß Flo

I get a great sense of place here, I feel the atmosphere of the cold morning, my eye drawn to the lone tree by the track. The tree seems to have a halo, adding to the ethereal quality.

Mice composition, love the effect that the lines produce, looks like the invite for a displacement of the tree towards the right side, yet it's centered. Interesting.
The texture of the ground is very much of my like and the atmosphere is wonderfully pictured.

Das Bild wirkt trotz Verletzung der Regel des goldenen Schnitts wunderbar harmonisch. Dies scheint durch die Versetzung des Baumes weg vom Fluchtpunkt zu liegen. So steht der Baum rechts neben dem Fluchtpunkt, was das Gehirn mit einer starkten Verschiebung assoziiert.
Weder der Weg, noch der Baum kommen in dieser Komposition ohne einander aus. Das ist ein faszinierendes Spiel von Linienführung und Positionierung!
Mir gefällt sehr, wie Du den Randlichtabfall und den unnatürlich hellen Horizont zur Bildgestaltung nutzt.

I agree - single tree on the skyline - can't resist! They seem to be few and far between in the normal places I go around here though.
