Viewpoint

Went to the park today with a totally different shot in mind.
The snow is gone and the trees were alive with birds singing and cawing.
I looked up and liked what I saw overhead with the bare branches like an etching.

Olympus E-P1
1/800s f/10.0 at 14.0mm iso640 full exif

other sizes: small medium large original auto

Great shot; very organic. It even reminds me of blood vessels branching out, save for the presence of the nests and the bird.

It's always a good idea to look up. A wonderful image of those lacy branches.

Fab - they are reaching out to each other and just about touching.
Janice Dunn12-Mar-2013 21:08
Oh Mairéad - I love these scenes - and this is great in BW. And it looks like you have a birds nest in a tree too

Great image, good idea to look up and get this view with the silhoutte like branches. v
SRW12-Mar-2013 20:38
Superb... -- especially with that bird in flight...! I would love to know what the world looks like from its perspective....
Walter Otto Koenig12-Mar-2013 20:38
