Rip's View

October 27

Office

I stumbled across a childhood Brother's Grimm book last night.
It stirred childhood memories of all of those wonderful fairy
tales. I got to thinking about Rip Van Winkle (thanks Rene)
and his long sleep and what he saw when he finally awakened.
Today I decided to look at things from his perspective.

Another napping shot:

I love the shot... but (hope you don't mind) I'd absolutely die for it if it was f/22 and shot from a tripod...

Excellent perspective!! Very bold and dramatic!
Timothy Guenther28-Oct-2005 02:42
The colors are nice in the firey red shot, but this is a more appealing composition, with the trunk filling 1/4 of the frame. Nice contrast in textures as well as colors.

Beautiful perspective, Scott. You'd better brush up on those fairy tales; you'll be reading them to a little someone next year at this time.

Wonderful image. But I think it might be Rip Van Winkle--the one who slept a long time.--Rene

Nice angle and colors/contrast. Well done.
Guest 27-Oct-2005 19:05
Golden leaves glow with the dark contrasty branches. Nice view Scott!
