“The tree which moves some to tears of joy is in the eyes of others only a green thing that stands in the way. Some see nature all ridicule and deformity… and some scarce see nature at all. But to the eyes of the man of imagination, nature is imagination itself.”
William Blake

I wish I had a chance to have a cup coffee with William Blake so I could tell him how influential his short poem was to me and the whole reason this shot ever happened. My favorite compliment is when my pictures are compared to paintings. The technique for this type of shot is to have your camera on a tripod, slow down the shutter speed and slightly move the camera up or down while taking the image. Does it always work? Not at all. But when you get that one that does, it’s magical. View Nature is Imagination full image here.
