The Snow Tree

Love this! I like the way the tree stands out so well, accentuates the loneliness of it! Well done!

Looks like it carries the weight of the world…..love it…

In a word, ‘Fantastic,’ with a capital F. Great work.

Wow really interesting idea!! It’s like the scenery in one poem that I wrote in finnish . In the end of this poem a man meets a snow-leopard by the tree like in your picture and asks the leopard “why are you mottled like the brightest starry night – I’m made of snow but the soot covers my faith” :-)

Yes, this does work well. Thankyou

Great shot!

Nice image, excellent processing!

Gorgeous work! So creative!

fantastic shot with such a MAGICAL feel!

Well done!!!

this looks fantastic – there are certain images that are just on the edge of depicting reality and you look at them and wish it was real and you where there (hope that makes sense). Beautiful work.

Creative photo,very beautiful!

Stunning work, love the harsh contrast

great job..gorgeous

you sir – are an artist! Fantastic work

This is GREAT!

Wow, very cool. And what’s bt*ist?

Wonderful work.

A stunner!

Superb effect …

“Very pleasing” is kind of an understatement here… this freaking ROCKS!!!

Very nicely done, wonderfully atmospheric and stark~

This is so beautiful. I love the ghost image of the tree behind the tree. It makes for a beautiful background. Great contrast and the blue color makes the picture even more cold and ghostly. Well done.

Wow, this thing looks alive and evil! It is like a scene from ‘Narnia,’ really awsome

nice bluring and the selection of foreground

I actually feel the cold, great shot!

Lovely..I think your technique worked quite well for this!

it is so peaceful and pretty!

beautiful – like the way the tree stands out so strongly against the background – very striking :o)

Gorgeous capture.

Wow! I like this shot for it’s simplicity and it has a very stark quality – all the better! :)

Wonderfully refined, what a lovely and stark image at the same time.

Now at the moment you should enter in the«fog » group,this is just perfect.

Great work

beyond awesome

Just stunning!

Even without photoshop, this would be a great capture as the composition is spot on. Your post processing in photoshop has taken it to another level…looks great

great creation

cool art :)

Terrific work there. The picture leaps out. Marvellous composition and atmosphere.

simply beautiful

wonderful shot :)

beautifully created

The treatment creates a beautiful mood, Berndt. Very dreamy and interesting work. It makes me think of the difference between loneliness and being alone. Seems like this tree is alone, but not lonely.

took me half an hour to get to the bottom of the page here – but eh this is one Excellant piece of work

It works very well, very nice :)

great shot, instant fav….!!!!!

Gorgeous! I love old trees…..

EXCEPTIONAL image beautifully conceived and executed Hence an excellent image

I see why you got so many comments. Eerie and beautiful.

Boy, I sure can relate to this! My city (Madison, Wisconsin) has a new record for the snowiest winter, and we have the rest of Feb. and March to go. Anyway, the treein the foreground looks like a painting, in fact, it reminds me of a piece of embroidery I did. I like the effect. A white out is rather surreal to watch, unless you’re trying to drive in it!

either a painting or a photo, this is incredibly beautiful

Simple, graphic, elegant. All conditions that make a great shot, never mind the fact that it is post processed. And those blueish tones make me feel cold! You really captures/created a mood here.

and i love this one too, oh i can’t decide!

Oh lookit all the comments! I saw this on your front page and came looking for it and I find everybody has already said what needs to be said. My great respect for your beautiful work!

Ohh I love this! What a great capture!

Wow, really powerful contrast… well done!

I hate snow… I refer to it as “the ’s’ word” so for me, when I say this is a masterpiece, that’s really saying something.

nice work

Looks as if you moved the snow and tree into a studio ;-) very nice work and thanks for explaining how it was done!

Love this photo. Very effective and beautiful!

amazing work!!!

Awesome photo!

I think I have already told you I like this, but going back through your gallery, I have to say this is my absolute favourite!!

I know you don’t like DSLRs but this is fantastic – the way the fading trees in the background become increasingly lost in the mist draws you in beyond the brilliantly accentuated tree. My favourite.

it doesn’t look fake to me! great job with the shot and processing!

This is quite effective! I like it :)

you stopped by and left a comment on one of my photos. So, I thought I’d drop by and take a look at your work. this is GREAT. Stunning might be a better word.

The fading trees in the background give the image a 3D quality.

I Love the feel!

This is a great treatment. Love it.

yes…hence me stopping by and commenting! Wonderful shot….it looks so surreal, I can imagine being there….nicely captured!

Simply lovely :)

GOSH ! this is beauty.

gorgeous!

The fog adds great depth and contrast… Love the isolation I feel from this piece… :) You did a terrific job :)
