The Forest Path, 2018 - week 07 |
Each week has its bit of exploration, learning, and when I'm lucky an epiphany that leads me to greater understanding of my art. Or its' challenges.
I have always found cottonwoods to be wonderful trees yet so full of individual character.
Each tree is so different, and yet, still a cottonwood. The challenge that has arisen with this, is
that when I am photographing cottonwoods, I have found that I'm usually creating a portrait.
A portrait of an old friend.

That won't work this time around. I need to show the forest... the whole community! So I cannot focus on any one tree with its wonderful personality. I need to capture the chaos of nature, while showing the beauty of the cottonwood forest.
And then come up with art...
