Description

This is a series that I've been working on for a couple of years now, and while I'm moderately pleased with the results so far, I'm still looking for a more dramatic winter shot (i.e., one with snow and/or ice on the branches*). I'd also like to capture a little more (or less--I'm not entirely sure) uniformity in the cloud formations between photos. What are your comments and/or suggestions?

Anyway, I plan to keep at this series until either the tree or myself gets hit by lightning. ;)

* I do have other winter shots of this tree with snow on the branches; however, the sky is generally overcast, grey and boring. So the real trick is to get a shot where the sky contains at least enough blue to match the rest of the series, but before the wind blows all the snow off the branches!

Beautiful seasonal series, they transition nicely from image to image. Idea for having sky be more uniformed across the series is a good one, but clouds change with the seasons as trees do just to lesser extent. This of course depends on the area in which these photos were taken. Snow and/or ice built up on branches is also a good idea, however trees such as this don't hold snow well. Snow does stay upon branches, but usually it won't be much because branches such as these are angled up towards sky and are narrow which limits amount of snow they are capable of holding. This generally true for ice forming on branches too.

Thanks so much for all the kind words, everyone!

@Lenn0: Actually, I never left--I'm still standing in the same spot ;)
Seriously though, there's a cultivated part of the field (not pictured) and I stand on the corner of that area, and then eyeball everything as best I can. In addition, and for more precision, I layered the photos in Photoshop and used transparency and guides to get everything just right.

Very well done, about your wintershot; I really think the grey sky is a must because most of winter it is grey. I also would choose a rainy day for autumn.
You can go as far as you want in this subject and I think you did the best I've ever seen.

I was thinking on the same idea for long time. Now I think it's time to start working on it. :)
Especially, when I see that results may be very beautiful.
