"Look"
Sunset and Change
Posted by Shrigley Photography (Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, United States) on 6 January 2008 in Landscape & Rural and Portfolio.
Happy Monday!
Sometimes life changes, and we sometimes must change in order to grow. For the time being, I'm now located in Central Pennsylvania (my hometown as well). This photo was taken in a park located acorss the street from my apartment. I walk there pretty often, trying to clear my head and get some much needed winter exercise at the same time.
I fell in love with this tree the first moment I saw it. The next day I ran out in really cold weather and caught some photos of the sunset. Then I ran back to my car because I couldn't feel my face ;)
This photo reminds me the "changing" process within ourselves can be so hard, but it can hopefully be beautiful at the same time. Sometimes we must change in order to grow into the people we desire to be.
Untill Tomorrow...

wonderful mood on this image and the contours of the tree against the backdrop of the dusk sky looks awesome.

Excellent exposure, good composition.
But horizon is not quite straight.
