Symmetry

Symmetry

Vast rows of deciduous trees can be seen in perfect columns, displaying their autumn attire, at this tree farm in eastern Oregon. Tree farmers sow rows of trees in varying stages so they can be harvested at different times and therefore produce a constant yield to maintain a consistent gross.

    This is gorgeous work. I have a nursery stock shot I took outside of Salem (where I live). I love the colors and symetry.

  • Christopher Ba... replied

    Thank you so much Rebecca. It was truly just a stumble upon sort of situation and I snapped a couple shots before I was verbally escorted off the property. Not bad for a quick composition and metering. Thanks for looking at my work!
