HAHA! Don't stand under during a strong wind! These look so nice and heavy, love the colors in this shot Silke! Nice exposure, well seen. I just love all the wood textures in this shot! Very EARTHY!

Hi Silke

The abalone shell caught my eye in the thumbnail. I had a couple in my seafood hotpot on Jeju Island. An eclectic mix od items. Tfs!

Bonjour Silke,

jolie proposition avec cette composition bien éclairée. Pour ma part, j'aurais diminué la présence sombre du tronc d'arbre, tout en gardant les proportions et l'arrière plan.
Merci pour la partage.

Amicalement

Hi Silke,
Beautiful still life composition!
You rendered so well the colors and textures. I like much the mix with ochre and light blue.
Excellent DOF and play of shadows and light.
Very nice image! Annie

Well seen Silke. Although I think I would have been tempted to crop out the tree trunk on the left so that the composition was nearer the thirds rule.

This is an appealing shot, with the earthy colors, combination of materials/shapes, and natural background. The sunlight and pine needles give this a fresh outdoor mood that invites taking a deep breath and basking in the scent of the pines. Well done:)

Bonjour Silke,
Tout ce qui est simple est forcément joli!
En voici encore la preuve, il y a dans cette photo un grand potentiel de contrastes végétaux et nature morte, j'aime beaucoup!

Hoi Silke,
Yes, again I see that the most beautiful things in life are simple and often for free. Like this "artwork of simplicity".
Beautiful light/exposure and colors. Good DOF.
greetings,
Joop!

You're right, very peaceful looking no matter how they got there.
Nicely captured as well as envisioned.
The colors, both off the camera and after post maintain a very natural look.
Nicely done.
Thanks for sharing,
Wilt

It looks like an oversized abalone shell on top with the mother of pearl look about it Silke. Nice tones and textures and well composed.

Very pretty! I would love to try some still life but I'm never able to find anything of interest. This is very unique and the lighting and colors are beautiful! Thanks!

hi silke, this is great, it reminds me of me sitting out at a bbq and almost half ignoring by accident the person talking to me as i see something that i want to pick off as the light is right-typical photographers we all are-lol!
very keen eye on this with a nice composition and good details,
tfs,
scott...back later:)
