Another lightthought

The real top-shot of the lightthinker-gallery of mine on deviantArt is “lightthought 287”. It was again taken in the forest near Lage Vuursche/The Netherlands. Actually in my pre-Nikon days. My old Panasonic FZ10 had opened the new digital world for me, and this shot has been one of the most beautiful results. No lightbeams, just a magnificent tree on a misty day in September 2006..

As there is no “lightthought” without a quote, here the quotation which I had chosen for this shot:

“Two roads diverged in a wood, and I …
I took the one less traveled by,
And that has made all the difference.”
(Robert Frost)

Lage Vuursche, 27th September 2006, 10.05 am
Panasonic FZ 10 at 6 mm
F 2.8, 1/40, ISO 200

    Such an odd spot for such a different tree. That and the soft mist makes the tree so heavy.

    And both that morning equally lay
    In leaves no step had trodden black
    Oh, I kept the first for another day!
    Yet, knowing how way leads onto way
    I doubted if I should ever come back…........

    Have you been back often?

  • jchanders replied

    Never follow a poem too closely!? I have indeed often been back to the wonderful area where this tree stands, but never again have seen it under such particularly beautiful light conditions.
