Original Art Photography Series by @velimir #158 'Two Trees'
The name of this art photograph is: 'Two Trees'
This photograph is all about atmosphere. It's a simple photo presenting an interesting motif. The long shadows from the two central trees speak volumes of feelings which this sombre and a little dreamlike image may incur in a person. Together with the bright yellow areas, they create a certain nostalgic mood that we cannot ignore. The supporting shadows from all other elements are just as important. However, the main focus is on two tall tree stems and the respective shadows.
Darkened, very unobtrusive colours are present in the background. Red, green and blue colours don't even try to take the attention away from the strong sepia-like tone significantly dominating the overall look and feel. They, however, play another role - that of livening up the image. If you have enough imagination to remove these colours in your mind, you'll immediately understand their importance.
The composition strongly augments the importance of the shadows in the foreground, giving them two-thirds of overall space. Top third, however, makes the image real situating the scene in an actual setting. Without it, the shadows would flow in-between real and unreal. The image would then acquire a completely different meaning.
The main elements, believe it or not, are the two trees which we almost don't see. This is why I named the photograph "Two Trees". :)
Enjoy! :)

Long shadows really seem relaxing. I like the nostalgic feeling brought about by this photo.
although my comments you rarely read, I can say for sure that the picture turned out very well, especially in terms of your skill. This is indicated first of all by the shadows on the main background and their significance, and if you look at them from certain circumstances, they change their meaning very much ... You are a master of puzzle pictures :)
I read all of your comments @frank1in :D
now I know, happy new year to you all and wish you continue to do your business and develop in 2018, thanks:)
sometimes I am just too tired or too busy to answer but I appreciate it! :) not easy keeping this rhythm...
I agree, you are always on the move, it's hard
bullshit
I can certainly believe the trees are the main elements of the photo! Technically speaking - the eye is attracted to the shadows, so prominent in the picture, then instinct leads you with the shadows, eager to find the source - then they go up the picture, casually jumping the little building - and magnets to the two trees, far but massive and dark. Now - emotionally speaking - this two trunks remind me of a pair of legs - and when I compare them to the two short trees at the right, the methapore coming to my head is the the way people deal with life - there are those that when facing the hardness life presents us with from time to time - give up, stop their growth and shrivel, and there are those that continue without letting go - and grow to the heights.
The photo focuses on this strength- encouraging us to go to the heights we can lead ourselves to, just like this two trees without end.
right on the point, as usual! :)
Well @velimir
Beautiful Title Suggested to this original photography serious #158
Two Trees!!
Well as usual a very artistic approach to highlight the hidden meanings of surrounding which shows your intellectual level. Take a bow <3
Well now it is my turn to express this picture in my words;
Two beautiful Trees are standing near the buildings where the selfish humans are living. Humans are ready to fight with each other just for the sake of Money, Prestige or Power and demolishing the unity with the hatred of Religion & Politics.
But oh! look at the shadow of those trees hands in hands. They are smiling and conveying a message of Peace, Dignity and Brotherhood.
Thanks @veli for sharing this beautiful piece of photography, hope so number #159 would be something wonderful too ;)
Stay Blessed,Steem On!
The shadows of the trees in tandem with the auxiliary once create a very relaxed feeling in me. I can imagine that if one were a bit depressed this composition could lift the mood. I think it might be good to show compositions like this to people in hospitals or other institutions where people are in emotional pain.
The shadow of these two trees formed the image of couple holding the hand of each other.
Beautiful or mysterious really after seeing this pictures my mood is swing and now my mind is started thinking deeply with unknown feeling.
This make me sad.....
But greAt post you shared
A creature is suited best when seen with its creator!
You are right, the top one third part does not seem to draw attention but without it the bottom shadow portion will lose all the feel...(shadows alone are not enough, but with two trees on top the shadows seem more lively)
Top portion is silently complementing the rest of the image!
Top blue lining and bottom redishness gives the photo real life!
The shadows are like a lovers :)
Another beautiful piece! I don't have any names that pop in my head yet. Love the colors too. When I look at it I feel that all my senses are affected. Smell, sight, sensations, sound... You have captured the essence of witnessing this awe inspiring place.
that's great, specially when I got main subjects are those two trees..
but I think it could be better if we had more of sky..idk..
btw..taking a meaninigful picture in a place like this, full of building and artificial elements, is challenging and needs more creative ideas (like hiding those trees in a more emphasizing way)
thanks for writing in additon of posting the photo
