Naked Trees by Aviva Cohen
“Last winter I began to photograph deciduous trees on my way to and from my job at New Hampshire Community Technical College. I was fascinated with the various shapes and structures of the trees that were only emphasized by the fact that they were bare of leaves. I would stop by the side of the road and snap them with my digital camera. I teach digital imaging and my favorite software application is Photoshop. I manipulated the images in Photoshop to create this montage. I sought to emphasize the structure of the trees and the way the branches grow out from the trunks, break into smaller branches and are silhouetted against the sky.” – Aviva Cohen

Stunning best describes your montage. I love the earth tones and the spash of white is refreshing. The torn edge is like a repeat of the feathery tree branch edging on the picture plane. It is calming to study your Naked Trees.
