Today i was having a terrible gray day, and was about to go to bed with an awful ball of frustration and anger because I wanted to have a "white" or at least an explosive violently cathartic and definitive "black" day.

Then I found your photo and the first thing I felt from it was silence.. I found a lake of peace in the other face of the grey chromatic coin.
I feel all the stress went away like a waterfall draining out of my skin.

You made me conscious of the relativity of human perception.

I specially like the contrast of textures you brought out; the roughness of the bark of the tree vs the clean far sky gently outlined by bright sunny leaves.
And I really like the decision of hiding the sun a bit behind leaves and branches, as if trees are protecting the observer from direct exposure to the strong full light's approach.

Thank you-

My word, how do I begin this? I simply love the vision you've put into this. How we, human beings, like to simply gaze at those blue skies. The most interesting thing about your picture is that not only can contemplate the skies and sun, but also the threes surrounding the area. I like how you put it in the classical black & white. It gives you that feeling of picturesque and let's remember for old times sake. To complete the whole frame, what I would wish the most is just sit there and read with a book. Very well done.
