Description Autumn is the best time of the year for me. The colors, the distinctive scent of fallen leaves, the gray tones of the sky....ahhh....great days. It could stay "eternally october" as far as I'm concerned. I shot this yesterday and it reminded me of those brisk days I miss so much.
About the photo: The original is actually B&W so I colorized it and adjusted the contrast to give it a slightly darker look and feel. I did cheat a little and added the single bird from one of my own bird brushes. I hope that doesn't make me a photo fraud
photo by: me
all work done in: PSCS2

yeah yeah, I know...it's still another tree photo

I love tree photos, they remnind me of loneliness or melancholy, stripped bare and standing alone. And by the way, I love October too....my fave time of year... miss the east coast in autumn.

weeja In reply to AnnieGitUrGuns [2006-12-13 03:38:56 +0000 UTC]

I agree, East coast defintely has the best fall in the states. And October is also my favorite month. It could stay October all year round and I wouldn't complain Thanks!

You knew how to handle that bird brush: simply! I hate it when brushes are overly done!

I agree, I think everyone goes through the brush phase when they first learn how to use or create them. I know I did

This one is absolutely perfect I love how all your works make me think and look for inner meanings and details.. Somehow I see someone who just hang himself on that tree... macabre maybe but that's what I see..




Much love!

Thank you! I submit tree photos a lot so I figure most will get tired of them...but they haven't yet! Your vision is a bit macabre, but that's what makes art so fun! TY TY TY!

I love this kind of scenery October is also my favourite month, though in Thailand there's no autumn but it has my b-day.

Thank you! October here in the Midwest states is really beautiful but we got robbed this past year That's cool that your Bday is in October. It's a great month for a Bday

Yeah: cheat, cheat, CHEAT! I love the tree shots so keep 'em coming - wonderful definition and the title is quite delicious I tend to favour October myself, though I'm now yearning for Spring proper - I feel that each season validates the next, so I wouldn't swap the temperate clime for a tropical one, though I do admit that it's rather good when a favourite season seems to extend itself...

weeja In reply to IDeviant [2006-03-10 14:36:29 +0000 UTC]

hehe, thanks man! October is, personally, the happiest time of the year for me. This past year screamed by to quickly though. Lasted about 2 weeks it seemed. I fear it's only going to get worse
