Hi Bart,Hi Cem,
I like the tonality and composition.
Is that from your new 40D?
Well done.
Bart
Thanks Marshall,Hi Cem,
The first thoughts that I have -- "where is the pot of gold?", and "where is the leprechaun?"
Your shot seems magical and mysterious, very rich in color and enjoyable to look at.
Thanks for sharing.
Marshall
Actually, they call this country also the low sky country. I even have a book titled as such. LOLCem,
yep, backlite and leaves, that's nice.

is heaven as low as that?
°grin° I know, in Holland, the mountans are not very high °grin°
Hi Kathy,I can see a scene like that somewhere in Amsterdam in one of the little courtyards. Love the highlighted leaves. Maybe we need to PS an elf on the ladder heading into the clouds.
xoxoxo,
Kathy
Hi Asher,Interestingly, Cem, you have provided a number of ways to climb to heaven.
The ladder seems straightforward but the steps are sometimes challenging to span. The pole is for someone who has little chance of getting there and would slide back down. One structure goes up but stops short while the ivy might support the weight of a child.
Once you have provided the title, we in turn can now bring our own ideas to your picture and engage with it in our way, but with your focus. We are encourage to wander around, exploring and finding familiar objects. Still we keep returning to your titles and refer to it when looking around. Doing this we might even re-calibrate fundamental ideas that we accept as fixed. This is, IMHO, may be of the evolutionary advantageous functions of art: externalizing scenarios in which we can look at relationships in diverse ways. For example we might have our beliefs reinforced. Paradoxically we can undermine existing dogma and belief. We might test out our own fantasy and imagination free from constraints. Taken further we can and even move the boundaries of what we assume "is", "isn't", "might be" and "might not be" possible.

Hi Doug,I like this, Cem. Is this a place you can return to? I'd like to see this shot very early in the morning or near sunset, when the light is soft. Might involve a tripod and time exposure, but it would be mysterious.
Hi Charlotte,this is beautiful-
reminds me of a secret hide away-maybe something for children or lovers
love how the light presents itself at the opening-is my kinda garden!
rustic and full of natural spirit!

Hi Racher,Ah, Cem, someday I would love to walk with you and watch you work. I'd leave my camera behind and just watch you make magic with yours.
