Raw Grain

A selection of Dead Tree Landscapes.

Uluru – Northern Territory June 2016 (7 photos)

As I mentioned in my previous post, Beyond the Black Stump, there are many dead and burnt trees in this region of Australia.

I’m not sure why but dead trees exude a photographic aesthetic that is hard to deny.

The raw grain of the textures and form of dead trees is highly photogenic.

Monochrome photography emphasises this.

The 2 tree stumps below were only about 1 metre high. I got in close and shot them in portrait mode to emphasise their narrow form.
