I only marked two images as "favs" in this challenge. This was one and the other turned out to be Deb's Pelican. I just find that so funny. I can't escape the two of you...and I'm grateful! Nice work, Johanna!
a 10 from me magnificent scene and beautiful tonality and contrast great composition and low angle and the people walking by are the icing on the cake, the connection of the roots of the tress and the feet of humans is nice and subtle and connects the picture together.
the light on the leaf in the sweet spot of the Fibonacci spiral also an inspired touch a beacon of clarity in the dark foreboding foreground.
A framing like this that truncates an image's story seems to be rather appealing to Ubique, tantalizing and allusive. While truncated (unavoidable pun), here I find the fabulous spread of roots enough to hold my interest mainly within the frame. I find the allusion from feet to roots, and back again, replete with meaning and symbolism. I won't spin it out, but I'm moved by it. Beautiful tones.
Just the most gorgeous tones! The beautiful photography of the writhing roots and scattered leaves is as good as I have ever seen of such a difficult subject. And lucky for me you have sneaked in a bit of whimsy with the oddball crop of the en passant legs! So I loved this picture on both levels, and I thank you.
