Nice silhouette (sp?). The vignetting is a product of the type of camera, a Holga. It's not everyone's cup of tea... but I like it. If you're not familiar with a Holga I'd recommend either google-ing "holga" or www.holgamods.com .
 
Art...wow. I love tress with no leafs on them. I have Holga envy now. I just got a new one and had Randy at Holgamods paint it hot purple. This will help me make better images, I know it will. Seriously I love this image because of the way it pulls me through it following the cuves of the limbs.
 
Thanks for the comments. Holga vignetting is an acquired taste, although I took to them right away. Mike, good luck on the Hot Purple Holgarod. If that doesn't get you better images you might want to try racing stripes
 
Purlple Holga? Pshaw. That won't make you take better pictures. You know what will? If you strip the Blue leathereatte from a Blue Hasselblad and then affix it to your new Holga...THAT! will make you take better pictures
Seriously...that's a great shot. I think I'll replace my Holga with one from Holgamods. Mine is pretty old and I'm interested in the close focus. I wonder.....if the guy from Holgamods can create an "extension tube" for the Holga.....
In the meantime, I'll try ductaping some close up filters on mine.
 
Art, Abstract and a Holga now that's a combo I can't resist. Trying to nail trees against a sky is always more difficult than it looks, but you have a beauty here
 
Very,very nice.
 
Missed this the first time around; glad it returned because I love this image
