Lines in Nature




Chilled to the Stem
I took this picture on a very frosty morning on my way to school; I believe it was last friday or thursday. The trees all looked so beautiful covered in ice and just had to take a picture. I decided to get a close up, like the above picture, so all the small frost particles could be seen. I thought it turned out wonderfully. The only problem was it turned out really blue. To solve this I edited the saturation of blues in the picture, making it more white. The photo relates to lines because all of the frosted branches are themselves lines.


Standing Tall
I had been wondering around behind our old barn trying to find pictures of lines in nature when I just happened to look behind one of silos. I found a clump of really tall weeds all standing straight up. I figured they were lines so I took the picture. It wasn't until after I went over the pictures I had taken that I realized the barn made a really cool background for the picture. 


Hollowed Out
I really like this picture. It is the inside of log that had hollowed out somewhat. It turned out so that the very edge of the log blurred and the inside is the focus point of the picture. It is a great line picture because the wood is in broken lines in the middle.


Grid Time
This picture was also of the weed behind the barn. These ones, however, had grown through some old cattle panel. I liked how the vertical weed stems were in the grid created by the panel. It is however very busy and when I look at it I don't know where my attention should go to. I turned it black and white to help lessen that problem.
