The tree and its shadow are very nice.............complex until you stare at it for a moment.

And that house! I prefer the color--the colors make it warmer. Love the warmth of the bricks and the grass and trees.

This lens seems like it would make a good cinema lens. It has ten aperture blades and a long throw on focus.

This gives me an example of a photo for my photo club's next meeting where the subject for the competition is "shadows". I could not imagine how to make a photo of shadows interesting. I will have to look more carefully.

Are the other two the same photo? I usually prefer color photos to b&w, but I like the feel of the b&w one.

I like the building in both color and b&w.

The setting really make the home even more dramatic.

We have a large one in our front yard. Very distinctive bark and shape. They are lovely when they bloom.

It should only be another couple of weeks before ours pops.
