River Gums

Oh yeah, this is just how they should be shot, light and fog is such a hard combo to pull off. Very impressed.

Absolutely beautiful

Those trees are just so attractive with their multi-coloured bark, and the fog adds an extra dimension! Beaut shot, Hans.

absolutely awesome. Images like this seem to beckon to me to turn them into an oil painting. It actually looks like one just as it is! I don’t know if it’s as i’m getting older – but landscapes seem to interest me way more then they used to, and this is one of the best i’ve seen.

This is outstanding – wonderful hues which sit so comfortably together. Take a bow!

Really beautiful. I thought it was an oil painting when I saw the thumbnail.

stunning, i thought it was an oil painting too!

Hello Hans, beautiful image…I thought it was an oil at first too!

gorgeous!!!!

Hauntingly beautiful, Hans.

Nice to see you here Hans. This one is popular. Maybe because we can all relate to such a nice scene.

Brilliant shot – the tones and colour are so awesome. You gotta be so proud of this shot Hans – it’s all there!!!

Wow,don’t know what to say about the responce to my image but thank you so much for all your comments.

great job. Beautiful image.

Vivid and beautiful.

Are you sure your surname is not Heyson?!
Lovely work.

Gorgeous sunset hues on the bark, and love the misty enchanted look to the background!!

Great shot….would love to have a house there!! Great job!

Wonderful work Hans,love it.

This is truly magical, Hans. A real stand out piece.

It’s not just the colours in this image it’s the hues as well…Just lovely!

Beautiful shot…all you need now is just add a bit of snow…eiei.

Great shot, like the golden colors with the sun on the trees and the fog in the background.

Remniscent of Heyson, Roberts et al. Hear that these great redriver gums are threatened. You are helping posterity there! Bron

Good old Australian bush!. Well done

luv it

Absolutely captivating… well done!

I love this image, the colours are amazing.

More Australian than Heysen! Love it.

Thank you for keeping the leaning tree, the scrubby dry grass. I can almost smell that quintessential ‘bush’ smell. Evocative.

Thank you for all your comments I must admit that this image is one of my favorites.

This is really beautiful…

great looking trees, love the light, and the hint of fog :)

Another great photo Hans. Thankyou!

It is wonderful Hans. André

Quite strange how these river gums all lean at different angles.

Guten Morgen Hans, Du hast wirklich ein feines Gefühl für Farben und Motive. Außerdem, und das sagte ich Dir ja schon vor einem Jahr, erinnerst Du mich an zwei meiner Freunde. Hans und Wolfgang. Einer von den beiden heißt auch Hans. Schon fast unheimlich. * Deine Bilder machen mir sehr viel Freude und lenken mich von schlechten Gedanken/Gefühlen ab. * Lieben Gruß Liona

Hoppla, ich wusste gar nicht, dass zweischen zwei Sternen * Fettschrift * kommt.

Wow! Incredible shot. EYE CANDY!

I was looking for inspiration and stumbled across you…..and then this piece of magic appeared in your gallery. Bravo! Are the colors close to what was there….did you use a polarizer? Regardless; it is one of the best photographs I have seen.

Awesome shot

Rivergums live in a category of their own … bark, eucalyptus smells, parrot magnets and much more! Great and respectful shot.

Stunning composition with marvellous light and the fog in the background really give the whole scene a great sense of atmosphere. Congratulations on being featured on Redbubble Home Page. Well deserved. Don.

... should have added everytime I see one of these scenes I hear the bird sounds that come with it. And the early morning fog on the riverside is equally classic.

This is beautiful!!! :-)

congrats on the home page. happy holiday.

excellent!

stunning

majestic image

Wonderful image. It looks like something out of a fairy tale. Great light . Well done. I love your work

lovely image the fog and light are great..

Really beautiful. I like the contrast between the warm light on the foreground trees and the cool blues of the fog.

...you know this is one of my all time favourite images Hans.. Just brilliant!

Nice one. Very common scene, beautiful light… Great photo

Ever so beautiful! I hope it is featured many times! A sure fave in any case!
And many thanks for your much appreciated response.

So beautiful. Very Australian…..and very good earthy colors…very well done..

instant fav, wonderful shot.

Lovely light and colour

marvelous work

Stunning light and warm colors. Beautiful!

This is very special for me because Gums are one of my favorite trees. Here in California we call them Eucalyptus. That is probably the Latin name for them. I have always been in love with them, from their bark, their sensual sway, and their smell.

absoloutely wonderfull !!!!!!!!!!

a static subject yet so much movement!!!!!

a beautiful aussie scene! love it!

love the light in this Hans

love the tones and textures and light … how utterly amazing …
I always loved the gums up on the highveld in South Africa … pulling the loose strips of bark down for camp-fire kindling … the gorgeous scent of eucalyptus …
This image speaks and has soul – you have truly captured well !!!

excellent work;

Hi Hans. Style, Class, Elegance, Excellence are looking for photos of this quality and calibre if you are interested in submitting this photo and any other photos you may have of the same quality, (that fall within the guidelines).

A difficult combination and you have nailed it using slide film! Beautiful result Hans!

Stunning and Beautiful.

This reminds me of a bushwalk I took ages ago. I can still smell those wonderful trees. It’s a beautiful photo, Hans.

This is a beautiful image Hans it almost looks 3D well done!
