I love this photo - but I'm not sure why!
It's a half-dead looking bush on a dull, overcast day. Composionally, there is not a lot of depth and it's rather centrally placed. Even the vignetting is a bit obvious, although it does give the subtle appearance of the bush glowing. I shouldn't find much to like - yet it is captivating me. I feel like I could put this photograph on the wall and enjoy looking at it for a very long time.
There is something intriguing and mystifying about the image. I think it's the detail of it that's drawing me in, the way the branches are pointing this way and that. But I'm not one to like random - I prefer design, so even that is mystifying to me.
Two thumbs up for the treatment. That brown/gold toning effect is beautiful.
Nicely done, Chuck. Thanks for sharing it with us. You've given life to an otherwise dull thing and made it look beautiful!
