Do those clouds have tree shapes or do the trees have cloud shapes? 🙂 Majestic.
We drive past this spot on the way to the beach and pay it no heed. It would be interesting to make a project looking at similar places.
It would. I would hope the mailbox stayed there. 🙂
Yes
This is really a striking photograph, John. I have revisited it several times since you posted it. The light and shadow, the road leading into some mysterious place around the bend, and I think maybe the tree against the clouds all combine to give depth that is reminiscent of the old stereoscopes or View-Masters.
Thanks Mic, I was happy to read your comment. I’m not that familiar with View-Master images, but I do spend a lot of time with stereoviews, especially the earliest ones from 1860-1880. That look of a “mysterious place around the bend” owes a lot to that period, I think, and to stereoviews in general. And beyond the subjects, I think there’s a wealth of unintended meaning in the aging process… lovely and sad in ways the photographers didn’t conceive.
This should be used as a prompt for a writing contest or challenge!
