Artist's Comments

These are the same trees (Avebury, Wiltshire) as in my Three Great Trees photo, which was taken in Winter. This time instead of focusing on the roots I tried to look at the new summer (I'm late uploading ;)) foliage - replacing the bare branches of the previous shot. It's much darker with this new canopy and the roots now have grass sprouting amongst them.
I think I prefer the Winter photo overall, but I like the seasonal change. :)
(There's actually four trees in this clump, the missing one is off-centre to the other three, perhaps I'll get a good shot of them all someday! :D)

This is really nice! I like how the roots at the bottom and the green branches/leaves at the top form a kind of natural border to the photo. My eyes kiund of get swept left along the roots, up the trunk of the trees, and then to the right along the branches. :D :thumbsup:

Thank you! :) It's interesting the way your eyes followed through the composition of the picture.
Wonderful to know that it actually worked in that way! :D

Thanks! :) They are lovely trees, but pretty tricky to get all the trees in a shot I like. (So far I have just used three, like in this one!) I agree It's a wonderful place to sit and rest! :thumbsup: I think they are probably quite popular! :D

Thank you, glad you like it! :) I tried to choose one that would emphasise the foliage in comparison to everything else.
