Big Old Oak Tree

I originally stopped by this location on Steamboat Island Road to shoot the old barn. I found myself drawn to the large Oak trees with the shapes and forms that they took on. There was a bright sun in the background. I had forgotten to change my white balance which was set on florescent and my ISO which was 1600. f22, 1/800

  1. I love this. Very moody. Makes me think of Halloween... and the feel of my wool coat fresh out of the closet for the beginning of the cold season. I love oaks in the winter, especially in silhouette.

  2. The silhouette is very dramatic. The tree almost seems to be reaching out to the barn. Reminds me of the tree in Poltergeist. (Shudder) I like the juxtaposition of the organic tree and the geometric barn shapes.

  3. This picture caught my eye as a ct scan of veins or arteries. Then blended into the eerie shape of the tree. I think the randomness of the branches is almost pattern in itself.
