Hello to you all,

This morning when my eldest son went to school, he came back and said: "Mam, you háve to go outside, it's beautiful there. So take your camera en go.!!!"

Now is the state of my body and my mind not thát good in the early morning, because of the headache (Lyme-borreliose). But I put on my clothes, took my bike and díd go outside for a little while.:)

This is a park nearby. The sun was shining, there was also a lot of shadows because of the high trees.

I love the way the world look so beautiful when the snow is still white and fresh. The white snow covers all the dirt and makes it clean and white.

For me, the snowy cover reminds me of the grace of God! I'll do think about that for a while... That grace covers all my bad choices and mistakes, the pain and my sin. God makes it as beautiful as the-early-morning-snow!!!! WOOW!!!

I hope you can see the beauty of the snow also, before people, cars, the world makes it ugly...dirty...dark...

Janneke

Superbe de belle scène d'hiver
Bravo

Hoi Janneke,
Weer zo'n mooie winterplaat! Super licht en een hele fijne compositie. De gouden gloed van d zon kan nog net de boomstammen enigszuns verlichten. Kortom prima belichting zonder OE!
Groet uit NZ, ga nu zzzzzzzz,,,,,
Hans

Wat is dit een schitterende opname en compositie. Je geeft me toch wat wintergevoel . Ik ben wel jaloers want hier in alkmaar wil het maar niet echt vriezen of sneeuwen.

Groet Ben

Fantastic atmosphere and great image! Very beautiful place.
Best wishes,
Achim

Prachtig Janneke! die takken lijken net van kant gemaakt! werkelijk heel mooi!
Het sfeertje en het licht... het hoort helemaal zoals je het hebt vastgelegd.

Gr.,
Anneke

P.s.: ik hoop echt, dat je je snel weer wat beter voelt... Lyme is echt vreselijk!

Hi Janneke

Hi Janneke,
Beautiful capture of this stunning winter morning, the frost and snow on the branches of the tree look awsome. You were very luckywith the weather, natural enlightment is fantastic. A really bright and sharp winter composition with a well chosen simple white frame. Great job, thanks for sharing this mood! :)
Greetings,
Kristof

Hello Janneke.
Simple but so elegant. I like the composition and the way you have caught the sunlight on the tree's snowy branches. Lovely lighting. The seat and rubbish bin look great in the space, as if waiting for people to come along. Very nice frame chosen too.
Regards,
Andrew

Hello Jan,
A lovely winter shot. Great colours, details and sharpness. The view is very pleasant. Good framing, too - give the entire composition a really artistic touch. Nicely captured play of light. Well done, congratulations!

hello Janneke

Really great capture of the frosty snow in this POV. I am forgetting about the crop of tree tops because your composition is striking, it is just your style that I like about this scene.

What I think make it impressive to me
.light on the leaves, streak on the ground
.shadow below the leaves
.empty bench nicely positioned
.tree trunks brightened by light
.branches behind the frosty leaves

Excellent work!

tfs, bill

Hello Janneke,

This is beautiful!
The composition, with the two tree trunks making natural frames and channeling the eyes towards the centre where, the glistening, silvery twigs weave a web across most of the screen, is just superb!
The low light, with its highlights and shadows, is the crowning glory!
This is a must for my favourites.

Kind regards,
Bev :-)

Hi Janneke,
Vlad (pozaru) learned me a new word, yesterday :"photopoem"!
I think this is relevant for your beautiful photo!
No doubt, grace is there! And you captured it so finely.
Incredible play of light and shadows.
My compliments Annie

Wow. Hans was telling me it had been cold in your part of the world, this proves it! Yikes!

Amazing capture of the ice on the trees, the yellowish morning sun and the blue-tinted shadows. This is a shot I would love to print and frame and put on my wall, it's postcard-perfect and beautifully done.

Hoi Janneke,
Wat was het mooi het deze morgen? Jammer genoeg moest ik werken en heb ik het alleen door de ramen van m'n kantoor kunnen zien. het licht is echt prachtig en de plaatsing van de bank is supper. De bomen zien er erg groot en imposant uit. Ik zag net een foto genomen in de kop van Overijssel en daar was geen sneeuw, dus ik denk dat we echt geluk hebben.
Groetjes,
Niek

Hello Janneke,your son was right to insist that you went out with your camera.
The morning sunlight shows up the snow covered branches beautifully.
I like the composition with the two trees standing guard over the seats.
Thanks for sharing.
Regards Jean.

hi janneke!!!

i like it.

Ik vind het heel mooi hoe het licht zo hal over de bomen heen valt

Danl je wel voor je fietstochtje :)

Hallo Janneke.

Hoi Janneke,

prachtige plaat, gaat zoveel rust vanuit, geweldig gewoon.
Het bankje past er helemaal in, de prullebak had van mij wel weg gemogen maar ja dan wordt de sneeuw weer vies he!

Mooie eigen weergave van jes. 1:18, wow...

groet Marco

Fijne avond Jan!

Nou sterkte met alles,'

Ah!! heel mooi Jan.
Vind dit de mooiste van 3 die ik gemist heb!
Komt vooral door de witte rand.
Kleuren zijn helder en het wit van de sneeuw is nergens overbelicht! Das knap!
Het hele plaatje klopt

Bonjour Janneke,

I would have like to see this image 800pixels wide, but I must admit the white border complete beautifully the image. Nobody would know how big the trees are without the seat. It give a lot of information on the seen, I love the simple compostion, the beautifull warm light and its direction. Splendid image and TFS.

Alain

Hello Jan
Wonderful clean crisp capture, with excellent lighting, I love the tree filling up the frame while the seat is positioned well in the compo. The lighting is the winner here, would have cloned that bin out but it is a terrific shot.
Regards from NZ
Jim

Hello Janneke.

Excellent picture, nice composition and colors.

Regards.
Jose luis.
