Your entire series of landscape photos is visually stunning, but this is the one I chose to critique, as it gives me an overall feeling of serenity more than the others do... with so many things contributing to that. Begin with the beautiful tree... its slant, symmetry and the way the sharp lines of it's branches contrast with the soft lines of the background haze, giving the photo its focal point. The colours are beautiful too... almost like a duotone in a pinky shade that is heavenly. Was that just the natural light, or did you use some sort of filter to achieve that effect. It just doesn't seem natural. Continuing with the lines, I love the way the sharp convex of the dark mound in the foreground contrasts with the softer concave of the lighter background landscape, which in turn blends subtly with the concentric rings of light in the sky. It all combines to give both a stunning visual effect, and a feeling of joy and inner peace when you imagine yourself being there. I hope that's how you felt that day. Like so many you have posted, it's a brilliant photograph. Congratulations!
There is something about this photo which makes me feel like I am passing in another dimension. This tree symbolizes childhood, optimism and the background gives me those feelings. Even if it doesn't abound in details, simplicity is the key here. The contrast produced by this kind of fog fog symbolizes a moment where you are able to remember about children laughing and romping around this tree. This still life helps you to remember this moment giving you nostalgia of passage of time when you realize you grew up too fast and nothing can bring you back in the past.
