lovely patterns, makes you more aware of the structure of trees when they are bereft of their leaves. maybe that relates to us also, when we let down our facade there is more complexity to appreciate than we let others see or know about us.
What a cool comparison! I really liked that horse sculpture in first shot tho. Perhaps the artist of the sculpture got their inspiration from the artist of the tree. . . God!
Sandy, this is a great series - the photos themselves, but also drawing our attention to the similarities between them, helping us to see both art and nature with new eyes.
I wasn't in front of my computer for last Sky Watch. Yours is wonderful, as usual, so original! This horse 'sculpture' emphasize your Sky, like a children'construction game. A great idea.

ReplyDeleteWonderful blue sky, Sandy! I love twig art! So this might be a yearling and a sapling?

ReplyDeleteTruer words were never ... or something to that effect.
ReplyDeleteYes, art does imitate nature. But nature still does it SO MUCH BETTER!
Great comparisons! Great shots!
Love the last one. We are right in the middle of Horse Racing season here in Australia. The Melbourne Cup is next Tuesday, Election Day in the US.
ReplyDeleteThis is really interesting and beautiful.
ReplyDeleteIt is extra interesting to me because one of the things in my upcoming art curriculum is nothing more than drawing branches--up close like you show.
The beautiful set of photos. The last one grabs me. The nature cannot be surpassed by any art:-)
ReplyDeleteHappy skywatching.
Love the horse.
