What an extraordinary image; the tree jumps out of the screen with more alacrity than I’ll have at his (her?) age. I’ll take this opportunity to say an especial thank you to you Marie for so many wonderful moments with your pictures in 2012.
Lol! 😀 Thanks a lot to you too my friend! Keep it up!
All the best to you and yours for a happy and creative 2013!
Beautiful! Happy New Year.

Happy New Year to you too!! 🙂
Is there anything more beautiful (tree wise) than a huge barren oak tree covered in snow? Ok perhaps a huge oak tree in autumn. Point being oak trees are easily one of my favorite trees, and this image exemplifies their beauty quite well. Happy New Year!
I agree about oak trees! They have a strong “personality” if you can say that about trees…
Thanks a lot Jeff, and a happy and creative 2013 to you too!
that’s quite a beautiful tree you got here. Great new year to you 🙂
Thanks a lot!! All the best for the new year to you too! 🙂
Happy new Year Marie!
And I love your picture. Looking forward to see more from you in 2013. And maybe even have a photowalk together? :O
Thank you very much Thomas, I’m happy you like it!
Photowalk would be awesome!! 🙂
Happy New Year to you and your family too!
Wonderful Marie and I wish you and your family a really Happy New Year.
Thank you so much James, and I wish you too a very happy and creative 2013! 🙂
You are very welcome and many thanks, Marie
fabulous photo .. I could get lost in that tree! Just looking at your photo takes me to a contented and somewhat meditative mental space.
Thank you very much, I’m glad you like it! 🙂
Happy New Year to you Marie! I am so in awe of your work. Was just on your flickr site and wow!
Thank you very much Grazie! Yeah, it got a bit hectic over there, hehe…. 😉
All the best for 2013 to you too!
Reblogged this on In the Sun and commented:
I’ve been meaning to blog/write more about my passion for photography or mainly analogue photography. But most of my time are spent shooting, scanning, uploading and looking at photograph after photograph.
I am not one to make resolutions though I have goals here and there and I am a sucker for the new year stuff hehe.
I guess I will make another go at this and also to prepare for an upcoming venture/project which hopefully will start in the next month or so.
Thanks to my friend Marie (or lighthouseblues on lomography). Her passion and her photography has served as a great inspiration to me. And these past months, she has been pushing me to “write about your passion”.
And so I start by sharing/reblogging Marie’s New Year post with this beautiful black and white photo.
Happy 2013!
Thanks a lot for reblogging!
All the best for 2013 to you too! 🙂
Wow. That’s an amazing shot! Late to the game, but happy New Year nonetheless! 🙂
Thank you very much! 🙂
Happy New Year to you too!
Marvellous work – love how the tree fills the frame. Happy New Year!
