This is a really amazing shot. It took me a while to figure out what I was looking at. The symmetry is just awesome. Perfect decision to go Black & White. Make an enlargement and hang it in your Living Room Stuff!!

I agree with Anurag - it took a minute for my eyes to figure out the scene. It is excellent - a great abstract, and a big WOW when it comes into focus! Very well done!!

The trees are all the same diameter, no limbs in site, almost perfect rows…. Looks like a backdrop for Narnia. Excellent shot.
