ehhe, I like it, I find it funny, can't explain why, though.
maybe it's the blue-ish on blue-ish thing, boh!?
maybe it's because it merges the deathness of the winter with the
liveness of tree branches (in this particular case they really
resemble to me some living things, some microscopical ones)

thanks,
Danilo.

I've looked at this one several times and played with it a bit.  I
like the image in general - nice abstract.  I think I have finally
pinpointed what is bothering me...the snow/frost on the branches is
just too blue - at first I was thinking more about contrast, but after
playing around that wasn't it, after correcting for the blue, the
image feels better to me.

Whether blue or white, it is a very interesting image and one that
takes a sharp eye to pick out.  Nice work.

Ha... I was outside in my driveway.  I can't remember exactly what the color 
was I saw with my own eyes... It was basically sunny with a mist rist rising 
out of the valley below/behind the trees.  Maybe this accounts for some of 
the blue-scattering...

I assume you're referring to the fact that it was taken with a macro and 
therefore this could be a closeup as opposed to telephoto shot?


Or is it that you think I got knocked on my can and that was the noment of

Quite a nice shot. Interesting pattern. 

But, think I'd like it better with the background a tad less purple. But then 
purple is one of my least favorite colors. :-) Also so that the there is more 
differentiation between the background and the branches.
