Tree V's Building

Posted by Darren (Tokyo, Japan) on 5 December 2006 in Plants & Nature.

When I saw this I saw a photo opportunity. The tree and building are almost the same shape. The building in the background is the Docomo Building the head office for a Mobile phone company that explains the big antenna on the top. Anyway enjoy and I look forward to your comments and your photos.

Good shot, Darren-san.
I like the thing which a tree gives us.

Nice Daz. I like the symmetry/comparison of the tree and building. Really nice perspective. Sharp too!

Oh...and I like that you can't see the womens' faces too! Adds more mystery and as Damon said - a more contemplative feeling to the picture. The red leaves were a nice touch too.

I like the composition: how the tree on the left is competing with the building on the right. You give them some arrogant-like personality. Great colors, the red tree in the back makes this picture not-bland.

@Ben: Thanks Ben. I like to compare things

Craiger from Vacaville, United States

I really like this shot for the similarities and the differences, the contrast between man (the building) and nature.

@Craiger: Thanks Craiger. It's amazing how we can imitate nature at times.

I wish the sky was not white washed.

@Suby: Yeah it is, but I think the tree is older.

Angry Buddha from United States

Good catch. The resemblance is very cool and I love the colors.

@Angry Buddha: Thanks Angry Buddha. More colour in tomorrows so please come back and let me know what you think.

Colour blind from Tokyo, Japan

Lovely picture. I imagined something different when you were telling me about it yesterday but far out you've blown my expectations out of the water. You know what would be really cool is if you HDR'd some sky into the picture. That would mess with peoples heads a little!!

@Colour blind: Well mate have decided to mess with some peoples heads and made some picture adjustment. Check this photo tomorrow and let me know what you think. Daz

Duncan Galbraith from kyoto, Japan

cool shot Darren. the trees have it for now...but give it a week and those reds and yellows are gonna be long gone. Nicely timed take.

@Duncan Galbraith: Thanks Duncan. Yeah they will be gone and they will be missed. I just hope winter passes quickly so we can enjoy the new fresh spring colours.
