Broke Inlet Trees

Broke Inlet Trees

This is the beach at a squatters town, Broke Inlet, at the end of a 4-wheel drive track, on the south coast of Western Australia, near Walpole. It is a fabulous place to explore, especially as – if they pull down the shacks – there may only be this view and a few pieces of driftwood left.

Taken with Leica MP, 24mm lens, Velvia 100 film. Cropped in photoshop and levels tweaked.

    This really gets to you in different ways. So gloomy and ominous background yet golden and uplifting foreground. Well done.

  • Elaine van Dyk

    Elaine van Dyk

    What a fabulous image! Great composition with the 3 in a row. I love how you’ve tweaked the colours to create such a dramatic rich looking scene. Also love the way the clouds follow the line of the trees.

  • nadine henley replied

    thanks for this thoughtful comment, elaine – yes, I was lucky with those clouds!

  • Marion  Cullen

    Marion Cullen

    Great lighting and very interesting composition, love how it breaks all the rules and still works fabulously. The 3 staggered trees give this the extra depth that one single tree would not allow. Good eye! (you have a Leica! I am green with envy!) :)

  • nadine henley replied

    dear marion – always love your thoughtful comments! and yes, I am in love with the leica – all my best shots are taken with it, the ones that move me somehow. The Nikon’s great too and essential for macro, but the leica is really special.

  • JamieGreen

    JamieGreen

    Fantastic composition and the clouds are just wonderful

  • nadine henley replied

    thanks jamie – you made me look at it again as you might see it – not as verdant as your wonderful lakes and scottish images, but quintessentially australian even though there isn’t a kangaroo in sight!

  • nadine henley replied

    lol! I guess I can’t be surprised since I made the swap myself 20 years ago and haven’t regretted it for a moment. Except perhaps a tiny bit when you post your beautiful scottish landscapes, jamie!

  • nadine henley replied

    thanks so much, judy – what a lovely comment! and for the fav. I couldn’t work out why this worked for me as it doesn’t follow the rule of thirds but then I heard about the Golden Ratio and I think that’s what is happening here. Anyway, I’m really glad you like it.
