RE: SHOW OFF SATURDAY - Photo Games Week 4, Game 4
It's great that there was a new photo game for me! I will take part in it with pleasure. This photo was taken by me in the mountain forest of the Crimea three weeks ago. I was driving from the top of Mount Ai-Petri and saw this tree on the way. I certainly made a stop to photograph it. For shooting, I chose a fisheye lens, thanks to which, the tree became like some kind of fairy-tale animal.
Thank you for taking part, this is such a great image and an example of using wide angle lens distortion to your advantage. The way the trees bend inwards creates a nice circle for our eyes to linger about in instead of running our vision up the trunks and out of the frame. Great work!
