Pine in Midnight Sun

I've been thinking about what would be appropriate to upload. The last days of terror in Europe and the Middle East were all over the news. A midnight sun impression seems to be a good choice. Now we can warm up a litle before the winter truly starts. This was one of the few nights in july that the mosquitoes were abundant. So a tripod and setting a timer was necessary. Then I had to run and tried to lure the mosquitoes away from the camera. Even then the spot healing brush tool was used extensively afterwards.

That's a wonderful story, really made me smile. Of course you have to suffer to make true art!
I like the way the tree seems to be welcoming the rays of the distant sun with open arms.

Wowww, het heeft een prachtig verstilde sfeer Peter.
Kan me voorstellen dat je een soort van 'passend' beeld zou willen uploaden, vanwege alle gebeurtenissen die er in Europa plaats vinden. Het blijft moeilijk.... Ook ik zit met datzelfde dilemma. Weet er niet zo goed raad mee...

Triest voor je camera, die muggen op bezoek kreeg ;) Vreselijke beesten die je het leven behoorlijk zuur kunnen maken, en zeker ook bij de fotografie.

Groet en fijne zondag verder. Christien.

Peter Van Lom has replied to Chris10 ^club

Inderdaad. Ik kreeg een mug in het toestel bij het vewisselen van de lens. Toen ik het probeerde schoon te maken werd het van kwaad tot erger. Tenslotte moest ik de camera voor een service opsturen :-(
