[Ligne directrice - Note] Note du photographe
The night before Easter Day 2007 we had a heavy snowfall, receiving almost 60 cm in a few hours.

This load was just too much for one of my neighbour’s apple trees, it had to give in and was later cut down. Almost entirely, just a fresh branch was left…

The workshop image shows the situation the morning after the snowfall.

This image shows the remains of the old apple tree as it looks today or rather a couple of weeks ago, waiting for the fruit to ripen!

I felt your absence for these days my friend...
How this you? I wait that very well!
Beautiful visual and of a wonderful light in this apple tree.
it is beautiful the look of the light shines half, half shadow.
Have a good Sunday my friend....

Good morning Pablo,
A small tree laden with fruit. Amazing. Nicely presented, sharp, and the shadow creates an attractive diagonal. I wish my dwarf apple tree would bear this amount of fruits. I see that the tree has been pruned before. Good Sunday my friend...Danilo

Hello Pablo.
Nice image.
Always Nature takes care of it self, right ?
It looks as our Apple tree, pity at mine, the craws eat them before they got ripe for us, sniff.

Hello Oablo,
a simple shot. But it is a great shadow management and exploitation. The soft colour and the dark green tones play well here. Timing is right and sharpness and clarity is undeniable. i believe, if the apples are red...then it is a real shot. Stunning than this one.
How lovely to pick apples with your own hand. The dreams that Asian have after seeing apple trees.

Foozi

hi Pablo

Although it looks like a branch with small apples but I can see the numbers enough to last weeks for 1 person diet.

I find the light+shadow which you have chosen to be the best part of this capture.

So you have apple trees in your backyard too?

tfs, bill

Hi dear Pablo ,
Very nice shot with lovely light and great composition.
Colours are vivid too.

Thanks for sharing my dear frined
Saeed

Nice light and shade Pablo with good detail. Remarkable how nature repairs itself,
David

Hi Pablo,

Very nice shot! You manage to turn a simple scene into a very nice photo, by using the light and composition! Good POV and I like the diagonal separation of the frame with the shade!
TFS,
Vassilis

Hi Pablo, Few things are more attractive than fruit wether on a tree or in a bowl. This tree has plenty for all the neighbours for sure. Good colours and effective. TFS. Murray.

Hi Pablo,

Snow, yes round Easter time that would still be possible here as well.
Indeed an old tree, only one branch left.
Good to see the line of light and shade make a diagonal through your picture.

Hi Pablo,

well done.Pablo..

Olá Pablo,

A new life (uma nova vida).
O eterno ciclo da renovação.
Seca o fruto, cai no chão, sua semente é fertilizada pelo solo e daí nasce outra árvore, que floresce mais tarde e dá novo fruto...
Assim é também com a espécie humana e todas as demais.
"Grão tem que morrer pra germinar", é o que diz um célebre verso.
Congratulations and TFS,
Sergio

This apple tree has quite a story! At first I just enjoyed the light and contrasts that make the green colors and the apple shapes so appealing on the graceful branches. Then, reading your note, I realized what a survivor this tree is and how amazing it is to see it doing so well. Great shot, and my congratulations to the tree!

Hi Pablo,
Luckely the summer was a warm one and gave your neighbours apply tree plenty of enery to grow.
I've missed your photos and am glad that I decided to activate my TL account again. Your creative approach to a composition is very inspiring and gives me new and fresh ideas. I like the framing of this photo and how you managed to have the shadow line run diagonal through the frame.

Gracious and elegant lines in this photo! The diagonal composition playing with shadows and light works so nicely.
Excellent rendering of the colors and details against the long shadows! Very beautifully done! Annie

Hello Pablo. Excellent fresh post of this over loaded apple tree and sadly has to be heavily pruned. Nice capture under the light with the cast shadow on the ground. Well done and best regards. Jusni

Nice green, fresh tones and light-shadows play. Optimistic feeling...Very interesting use of light.

So, a new and "fructiful" life is for you, my friend, as in this fructiful tree!
As you know, I never run after points in TL or TE, so the critics about my postings on your behalf were doubled in value !
I discovered a beautiful Norway!!!
Thanks for your generous support over the past four years.
As seen on this picture, half of your productive sunny life is to come...hang on!
Best regards to you, your family and to Carrot.
Have nice fishing seasons!

Hi Pablo,
At least your neighbor got one more crop of apples out of the old tree.
You caught this surviving limb in brilliant tranquil light and I hope you got to sample one of these declious orbs.

Pablo,

It seems that the tree was already very heavy with its own product.
Still some parts were left and nature has done the natural trimming.
