Winter Trees

Here's an idea that came to me yesterday for a photo series. I was thinking about the growth of plants as a pulling, rather than a pushing force — like the sun is pulling them out of the earth — and I realized that if you look at them upside-down you get a sense of that kind of gesture. I've decided to carve a niche for myself in art history as the upside-down trees guy. What do you think?

    Favourite by far is the one with all the telephone lines. Looks like a musical staff (is that what it's called?) or lines to write on and the tree has filled it in! Very beautiful idea!

    Yeah, I like that one too. At first I was trying to avoid the power lines, but then I started getting into them.
