Out and about early Sunday morning, I found myself just plain enjoying the way the morning light moved horizontally across the landscape and played with my perception of depth and dark. Looking up was a visual adventure.

fascinating photo, I saw halloween spiders. oh no!
ReplyDeleteI know what you mean, Sandy. Some days the light just feels unbearably beautifu.
ReplyDeleteYou always capture beautiful scenes and this is no exception.

I see what you mean. At first glance, the branch in foreground that's shaded looks like a shadow of the one in background that's lit. And since we don't expect to see a shadow in front of something that's lit, our eye automatically assigns the foreground branch to the background. But there's still something not-right about that arrangement because the shadow is still across the front of the...
ReplyDeleteYeah, it really plays with your depth perception.
Cool shot (if a little unsettling).
It does look like a Halloween tree! And your beautiful blue skies do look "heavenly"! We're SO gray here and have been for several days, so I enjoyed yours all the more!
ReplyDeleteHave a great weekend, Sandy!

When I read Mojo's comment, I realized that she had summed up that effect so perfectly!! The shadow appears to be in front of the object being shadowed!! I realize full well that the nearer branches are still in shadow while the upper branches have caught the morning light, but I like the other description better!!
ReplyDeletejust delightful.
ReplyDeleteFun shapes dancing in the branches.
ReplyDeleteHow wonderful to see blue sky as you look up through the branches! Here we also had a glorious weekend filled with blue skies!

ReplyDeletethey look like spideys. I can see what Marcia is saying:)
ReplyDeleteThat's a beautiful shot, and your poetic description is additional joy.
ReplyDeleteThat would make a fine jigsaw puzzle also!
ReplyDeleteIt looks like little goblins are in those tree limbs. The sky sets them off quite well. Glad you could get out to enjoy the blue skies.
ReplyDeleteA great shot of nature up against the sky.
ReplyDeleteSydney - City and Suburbs
Super shot, interesting!
ReplyDeleteHalloween Rhorshach blots and strange sorts or marionettes spring to my mind! I love the contrast between the dark leaves, the light on the branches and that brilliant blue sky
ReplyDeleteThat's a perfect balance of colors and contrast. Hope you have a great weekend.

Lovely shot. Such imagination as yours at work, I can imagine how many things you saw in that leaf fallen tree! I know I see many things that make me smile!
ReplyDeleteSandi
I love the light and dark of those branches against so blue a sky! Bare naked trees are my one consolation for winter's arrival; I hate the cold but oh, those trees are lovely!
ReplyDelete:)
ReplyDeleteLovely Sandy. I love the leaves against the bare branches and the deep blue sky.
ReplyDeleteThose dried leaves look like black spider halloween decorations!
ReplyDeleteIt sounds as though you had a lovely walk Sandy. My eyes see halloween goblins in the dark areas... wow to the imagination. And ooh la la to your blue sky, it has been a while since I have seen that here.
ReplyDeleteSpirithelpers
