Monochrome Weekly: Bend and Blend

"Fantasy allows you bend the world and the situation to more clearly focus on the moral aspects of what's happening. In fantasy you can distill life down to the essence of your story."

Hey Cher: We're Monochrome Weekly neighbors this week. This reminds me of lake Erie.

A lot of positive energy in this image. Beautiful how the palm is reaching out.

An incredible view! That palm/coconut tree is almost on the rocks, and those big ships in the background are fantastic!

SquirrelQueen said...

Beautiful shot Cher, I love those palm trees. You captured this perfectly. The dark trees against the lighter background is stunning.

I think we are getting hooked on monochrome, it creates such dramatic photos.

Hi Cher, a great composition. If I will use my creativity, I will imagine the rocks as the boat the bent tree as the front of the galleon ship and the tree to the right, sail. Hahaha! How's that for my imagination?

P,S. Thanks for the very inspirational and encouraging comments! I won't disappoint you (hahaha trying hard)

Tes said...

Lovely shot, girl! I love the palms, they appear to be talking! The smaller one shuns the bigger one, while the bigger palm persuades the bent one to come back. . . Beautiful composition! :)

The silhouette of the coconut trees brought the beauty out! The looked like lover trees.
