What a striking shot. The colors are amazing. And as for the clarity, it's absolutely grand. I like the nice, simplicity of this composition. Thank you for sharing this.

It leaves me feeling... happy. Sparks a memory of my childhood.

Thank you.
It sparks thoughts of my childhood as well
because this pear tree was planted by my father
on the 10-acre plot of land where I grew up.

Ah, well now that's quite a story.

And on a separate note, your work is truly inspirational.

Oh wow. This photo is extremely striking to me, and I can't really put my finger on it? Is it perhaps the focus and... god, the one class on photography that I've taken has escaped me now... nevermind.

I just find this photo actually pretty breathtaking, and I can honestly see it somewhere on perhaps a book cover, or an album cover or the sorts. It's very gorgeous in an original way.

Anyway, had to comment and add the favorite. Surprised no one else has added this as a favorite also.

Thank you.

The concept you may be looking for is "depth of field". That's the total limit of what is in focus (versus what isn't).

I appreciate you for taking the time to type out your thoughts (as well as favorite-ing).
Hope you have a wonderful day.

Oooh, I love pears! Interesting focus you have, there.

TheHungerArtist In reply to jennypie [2004-10-18 00:48:11 +0000 UTC]

thanks darling. The focus was fairly intentional. However, I didn't count on the fact that the background would make that distinct of a demarcation from the foreground.

Nonetheless, it ended up looking neat.

I like the clean, crispness of it.

Velvia can come across that way, especially if it is slightly overexposed like this one.

Thank you.

Ooh! Where was that taken at, btw?

In East Tennessee at the house that I grew up in. We lived on 10 acres of land, and now my grandparents own it, which makes it easy to visit.

I live over near the High School.
