These are photos of a beautiful black Locuts in our yard. The way our house sets we only get early morning sun.
Because of that we see some amazing sunrises. I captured this shot at about 6 am late last fall. The second shot was midday and overcast.Well actually very snowy, so basically a typical Vermont winter day. I kind of like how these two shots show not only the diffrence in lighting, but also the diffrence in seasons. The last one was shot around 8ish PM. I love the way the full moon glows through the limbs of the tree. With the night shot my shutter had to be slower or open longer to allow the light of the moon to show fully (Buuuurrrr). However, I also wanted the keep the darkness because I think it adds a element to the image. One of the many things I learned from this assignment...a tripod is a very useful tool and lighting can make a striking diffrence!

Wow!! What great photos! Although they are the same tree, they look like completely different objects! I love them! I can't decide which one I like best. I like the third photo with the moon and how the light of the moon brings out the tree branches! Great work!
ReplyDeleteNow THAT is some time variation in your photo series! I appreciate you taking in the cold night's air to capture the moonlight version...very nice!

ReplyDeleteWOW, incredible! three completely different pictures, all really beautiful. Thank you for sharing them with us. VERY NICE!
ReplyDeleteI am with all of the other postings I think these pictures a great. When I first saw your photos I said WOW!!! Just like everyone else. I really like the third photo because of the moon if I had to pick one out of the three, but I really like all of them. Great Job!!!!
ReplyDeleteI love the third picture it's amazing. I like how the moon illuminates the tree. I'm sure this picture was very hard to take. Great job.
ReplyDeleteFabulous work. Each shot has it's own beauty and unique-ness that it is almost hard to tell that they are all pictures of the same tree. Thanks for sharing!
ReplyDeleteAll really great photos with such varying effects from the lighting and color. Really unique shot in the third photo! Nice work!
ReplyDeleteBoy I think you earned an A for the week. Very nice pictures. I love the last one with the moon. Did you have to put it on a tri-pod to get the shot?
ReplyDeleteNevermind I answered my own question.
