vu@granby - Wolfgang from Granby, Quebec, Canada
There must be some ghostrider galloping under the trees....

@vu@granby - Wolfgang: Actually, Wolfgang, that is the moon setting behind the tree. I took that at about midnight one night a month ago. Didn't know what I was going to do with these shots - until Clarke's Day came up!
SPunkt from -, Germany
I like that a lot! (As I do with all of the Clarke shots, I think.)
It has some mystical touch and I wait for the tree to come alive.
I am convinced that there is a time for every shot, sometimes it just takes a bit longer.

@SPunkt: Thank you.
Shrig from NorthEast, United States
I have a few photos similar to this, only mine has the sun in the background. Very nicely done! I love the little tiny buds on the branches.

@Shrig: This shot and others taken that night were an experiment for me. I had never done anything like it before. Thank you for your comment.
