I always think the interesting thing about this sort of picture is what I call the negative shapes - ie the shapes between the branches - sometimes these can be very interesting.
And there is a very different feel in the air too from when I took the tree photo (which was March 4th, the day before the most recent snow). At last, I think, spring has arrived. Daffodils seem to have come out all in a burst. There are buds on the nut bushes and leaves opening on the blackcurrents - but the oaks stay resolutly wintry.
Weaver of Grass. It's a good point, that about the negative shapes. Do you find with some pictures negative or positive predominates - or does your mind flip backwards and forwards between the two?

It has such a beauty and I like the contrast against that very blue sky.
Bare branches against the blue sky. Beautiful.

Hello Hermes and Blossom.
Today has been another blue sky day.

You can never have too many trees.
Hello Cat and Victoria.
I don't know if you have come across the blog 'à la recherche de l'Absolu...'. (Photographs.)
http://jeancouleurs.blogspot.com/
It's quite funny because even though the blog owner also has a separate blog called 'Trees'
http://mes-arbres.blogspot.com/
. . . BOTH blogs are photos of trees. I suppose trees just draw one in. As you say, Victoria, just can't have too many of them!
