The all important comma!
There I was working away, thinking that I was about to run out of ‘current’ images, when the clouds parted and a lowering sun lit the trees by the back wall of the garden. Thank you, thank you, thank you. So simple, just the wood of the Myrtle tree and a bit of afternoon sunlight, but it all seemed to be rather effective.
This first image really captures what I saw, so simple but beautiful in its own way.

This second image portrays the lovely golden colour of the light and bark combined, together with a bit more detail of the wood.

May be it is just me that thinks this is really effective, let me know what you think.
Thank you MM, always things turn up….

I’ve noticed that, in winter, I am also drawn to these simple shapes of trees and branches, and especially love to see their textures and any kind of lightplay that comes along.

Seeing that spot of golden light is like catnip for a photographer. I’ll put down what I’m doing to observe this beautiful winter light. Love the top image.

Certainly here I think the low sun provides a much bigger window of good light than in the summer. Thank you for your comment once more. MM π

Just because my eye is the other side of camera does not make me an expert either – after all I am no Mona Lisa fan having seen it in the flesh. However, if you like it that is great and what counts. Personally I am pleased that I captured what I liked about it…..π
