Isolated Cypress Garden
This is one of my favorite Cypress Tree shots. I love how so many flowers are growing around this tree’s trunk ,distant from the shore or any close neighbors. It’s interesting how four of us shot this lake for the same amount of time, saw the same trees and flowers and all had a significantly distinct vision and interpretation on how to communicate the beauty of the place in our work. I think everyone would see the beauty but making a good image out of the chaos of color and form is a challenge. Keep in mind, I’m only showing you ones I like, not the hundreds more that hit the trash heap. Unlike film, like one of my friends shoots (big expensive film up to 8 x 10), digital allows us to take as many as we like, which costs only time and not money. In my retired case, “Time is not money”. (Bald Cypress - Taxodium distichum) (Sony a1ii, 24-105 lens @ 68mm, f/6.3, 1/80 second, ISO 1600)
