Belgium Forest

The vignetting in the bottom left and right… deliberate?
Again, great organic color range in the background.

I like that it dissolves into the top of the frame – translates perfectly, I reckon.

Making me shiver! I guess that means you’ve certainly imparted the “feel” extremely well! Love the idea of picture in picture.

Very matrixy paul. You must be having fun translating and executing visual ideas so quickly and spontaneously as your on the move. Keep them coming!

Very cool! The lighting is excellent, and the concept is cool.

:-)

Nicely executed!

Nice transition from thought to reality. Very organic.

Ohhh very cool…reminds me of something..though not entirly sure what. The whole thing kinda has this ‘deja vu’ vibe to it. I love it, Paul!

Yep very cool alright – like the entire concept and execution.

Reminds me of a scene out of a russian thriller…

Yes indeed, we have nice forests in Belgium ! Well done Paul !

Captured it perfectly

wow. just… wow.

love your thought process here and the way it has been expressed in this.brilliant.

Such fantastic work – the effect is awsome, kind of like a dream world! excellent work as always Mr V.!

Interesting interpretation. The addition of the frames enhances the texture, the icy tones and the three dimensional effect.

fantastic you must be having a great time you jetsetter you you look cold though

yes Belgium has splendid forests. What a good effect in this dreamland. Bravo.

wow….very nice!

I see the trees but I also see reflections as in a lake..beautiful capture. the idea of splitting it up works perfectly …. sometimes landscapes are all about the feelings you have rather than the visual..hope that makes sense.

Wonderfully done this has a dream like effect that is fantastic. The lighting and depth to this shot is very unique. Great work

Great! Love this!

Interesting composition, perfectly done

amazing/is that a snake in your hand…..........oops no…maybe a hat! Very serious /wonderful /but I love

Brilliant! This is excelent Paul.. I love your concept here and you have executed it so well.. you really are coming up with some great work from your travels!

Wow – brilliant image

Fab light on the ground. Makes it look cold and inviting all at once. Great treatment.

You have entered the “Matrix” Belgium style!!

Great idea, looks cool

Oh I love this…the drama, formal pose, the red reflect in his belt and the tree and the upper effect add a wonderful depth and draws you in;)

This is awesome Paul..and I’m right there with you.
WOW.

Wonderful idea… looks amazing!

I love how this is so different it’s wonderful, what a neat idea.

This is a brilliant piece, love your interpretation.

the back drop of the trees are awesome looking, almost intimidating with a slight lean in….

very interesting!!! I feel like this when I’m think of photography!!!

Hey paul, so many of the comments above mention that this shot is cool. am I the only person here that is laughing very hard at the way the mighty PVZ appears frozen solid? cool i think a little colder than that ;-)

This is great, you remind me of a time lord, very Dr Who. Happy New Year!!

X CELLENTLY DONE very cinematic

SOOO COOL! :)

Unique idea…inspiring shot!

best
sandy from Belgium

yea…

Oooo i like this!

thats cool!! you can almost make out a face fight above your head… awesome!

the concept is cool:)

Paul, don’t really know how this one escaped me… I often have the same feeling when I enter a Belgian forest, but you actually succeeded in capturing the mood!! Nice work, cool subject!

Very original, creative. May add something? That forest lived 3-4-5-6 thousand years. The tree which died has there spirit as well, you manage to show for me the spirits of that lovely balgian forest. thank you phylosopher.

Wow! YEs, that totally expresses how I feel about seeing photos everywhere!!!! So clever, and I love the way you have put yourself in there too. A great way to conceptualise the feeling. Wonderful you!

Nice shot Paul….like everything about it…very clever..

Photographer’s head! I understand! Never stop thinking – this could be such a great shot!

Beautiful work, Paul. Such subtle PP, much of which i think i overlooked when i first saw this image some months ago. Now that i’ve taken the time to truly look deeply into the image, i’m seeing so much more. Fabbo!

You are indeed an Angel

Homage to Mondrian ?

looks amazin enlarged …anna ; )

thanks anna…. wow – seems so long ago… I remember how i felt too….

Another one I had to revisit. This reminds me of Rob’s work in many ways, but then again it’s so different again. Your head must be full of the most amazing ideas, I don’t know how you can function sometimes, with all that’s going on in there…

Mel, you are way too kind… yes, it does get a bit hectic in there, thanks for re-visiting some of my old stuff… : )

great one,

Absolutely incredible!! I see so many rich layers of emotional and visual content within this image. It’s always been one of my favorites of yours, beyond memorable in every way. What a pleasure Paul, amazing in every way…
