I made this image while travelling in Chile. The image grabs me because it radiates pure tranquillity, but also the ruggedness of the mountain massif behind the tree. The tree looks like it is just in front of a painting. In addition, I deliberately took the picture at eye level and from a distance. This is as I saw it when I came walking around the corner. I held my breath with beauty and I wanted to capture that very image. My feelings immediately come back to me as I write this.
I love natural/soft colours and this picture reflects that. The image is playful because the branches in the foreground are out of focus, this way there is depth in the picture and it is not so static. In the background you can see the clouds hanging in the mountain massif which also gives nice depth.
This work suits nature lovers. People who have the same feeling about a mountain massif as I do, an indescribable feeling.
