Artist's Comments

Blackwood canopy near the Hogarth Falls, Strahan.

If you've ever been on those little nature-trail-see-natural-beauty-such-as-these-waterfalls-walk<<don't-break-your-ankles>>type-thing, then you'll understand you're focused on your footing and the tannin-brown creek and the greenery and the flowers... much more than whatever the overcast sky is doing above you. But do look up. Especially when there are blackwoods. A most impressive silhouette...
To get more of an impression I suggest you MOVE YOUR FACE FAR AWAY FROM THE COMPUTER SCREEN. I was standing on the ground, you see. Blur your eyes a bit to see more of the jigsaw pattern.
Please enjoy this photo. Every Last Bit of it.
It still completely compels me.
I hope it has the same effect you...that you can get lost in it, drown in it.
Alright man, it's just a &#%$* picture of some trees, think what you will dudes!

Take the advice of ~Heureuse next time you go on a walk in the woods and resist the urge to spend the whole time being focused on your footing and the tannin-brown creek and the greenery and the flowers. Look up and may be lucky enough to see something like the "Blackwood Jigsaw" (Suggested by ~pirate-soul and Featured by `hesitation)

That is such a damn cool photo! Love the use of b&w too, makes you focus on the 'jigsawness' of it. Totally awesome.

Commenting art makes you feel all warm and fuzzy inside. :) Try it and see here, the favour will be returned.

I didn't use b&w: it's just a silhouette. This is in colour! =p

You don't see many 'artistic' nature shots that are legit, so props for that. I may be getting too excited, but I reckon you could go places with that snap.

I love that! it's verry sharp with a "flare part", awesome!

wow. you mean.. it has potential?
But this snap could go where?

One great thing with nature photography is that what you see is all you've got...your studio is already setup. Which in turn I s'pose means it's harder to make them 'artistic'.
