The Oak Prince
This may well be my favorite image of the year so far to date, two reasons why, one the atmosphere and light was nigh on perfect and two, the character of the tree itself. It’s a tree I came across back in August and have scouted twice before, trying to decide from which side I should photograph him. This side is slightly more elevated and his protruding arm like branches are more poignant. It’s a small Oak really and seems to be stunted in growth, so not really a king of oaks but more like a softy prince, if you get my meaning.
He seems to be in some sort of flap or excitement of the colours of autumn bestowed upon him like gold coins being thrown to him from the poorest taxpayer but still poses a slight snobbery with his pointy fingers.
A great character no less and I have marked this composition for a fours season project, which I have been desperately trying to do for 5 years now.
