P’tite feuille

Danse,
P’tite feille,
Danse!
Laisse éclater ta joie.
Ce sera la dernière fois.

Brille,
P’tite feuille,
Brille!
Enchante nos yeux
Une dernière fois.

Ne pleure pas,
P’tite feuille,
Ne pleure pas!
Essuie tes larmes,
Fais-en des perles.
Car, même si tu t’en vas maintenant,
Demain, tu reviendras.

Little leaf

Dance,
Little leaf,
Dance!
Give your joy free play,
For this last time.

Shine,
Little leaf,
Shine!
Enchant us once again,
There won’t be another time.

Don’t cry,
Little leaf,
Don’t cry!
Sweep your tears,
Let them be pearls.
Even if you leave today
You will come back tomorrow.


N.B. Taken with my Pentax 6x7 at the river Ärgera (Canton of Fribourg), scanned with Nikon Coolscan 9000, level corrections with strong attenuation of the bright tones, color balance, sharpness.

Kind regards

Markus

Bonjour Markus,
Voilà une image pas facile pour le commun des mortels. Mais en y regardant de plus près on découvre un traitement des textures et reliefs tout à fait étonnant. Et cette petite lumière sur la petite feuille, juste merveilleux. Quant au poème, s'il est de toi, je te dis bravo
Bonne fin de semaine
Anne

Bonjour,
Voilà un bel exemple de teintes qui s'accordent bien. Les gouttes d'eau sur la feuille sont un plus.
Bon dimanche.

Bonita composición de colores, formas, texturas y luz. En la mayoría de las ocasiones la belleza está en las cosas simples. Un abrazo Markus.

Hi Markus

What a magnificent "game" of textures as well as colors!
This is a very original post that brings with it new ideas for other photographers to follow on.
The composition is very delicate and the details are sharp on the main elements of the frame, but maybe a bigger DOF would have been a little better.
The reflections are amazing and unique and create a great set of tones that bring a lot of attention to the image.

Bravo and TFS
Horia

Hi Markus

Superb combination of abstract and natural. Great composition and focus.

James

Hello Markus! The photo of yours is done to perfection in terms of quality, art and simplicity (meant the best way it can)! I have never seen so much tones of one color in a single picture... And the poem fits great as well. Thank you very much for showing!

Hello Markus,
Good details in the subject, very attractive colour palette!
The simplicity of nature is well depicted, but yet it is so complex...
Good texture and fine details, nice effects in the droplets!
Greetings,
Pablo -

TFS
my best wishes

Hello Markus,
i see you've found a little patch of nature and turned it into something special...the textures and details are sublime my friend. A piece of art.
Paul

Bellos colores y original composición.
Texturas exquisitas
Saludos Markus, JL.

Bonjour Markus,
La voici immortalisée cette petite feuille, en route vers la gloire ! Vous avez su capter la lumière de façon à la transformer en un bijou. Toute cuivrée, elle ferait un joli pendentif !
Antoine.

Hi markus,
I love the details and clarity in this photo. it alsmost feels if I can really touch it. I love how the orange color tone seems to pop out of the composition. The texture in this special piece of rock is briliant. The square format really helped to create a perfect balance in the composition.
TFS,
Niek

this must be a negative scan from one of the worlds largest 6x7 slr's..the pentax 67? mirror up model?
its full..or rather packed full of detail and razor sharpness with top lighting...from the top as well..to accentuate the tactility of the stone
ps see your note explains my earlier comment
its good and enviable work for us digi buffs where the medium of film can outstrip the high Mp attempts at fine grain and high acutance without too much pp...
still we are stuck with it and its many merits and strengths...the dslr
cheers

Hello Markus,
a stunning texture of the rock. Really rough texture being shown clearly here. the drops of water on the leaf looks so lovely.
Well designed and excellent positioning.

regards,
Foozi

Fantastic shot... I love it when you come across something that most folks might not see and capture it as wonderfully as you did here... outstanding!!! TFS
