BETULA

Birch
Birke
Bouleau

This tree of the Betulacea family is easily recognisable by its special looking and white bark. Unfortunately I don't know which species it is precisely.
The name birch comes from Old German Birka. And the name of the place the picture has been taken is Bürchen, in older version Birchen, which means birch. This village is well-known for its large amount of birch trees.
Birches are food-plants for larvae of a huge number of Lepidoptera-species.
The background of the picture is given by the snow-covered mountains of Bernese Alps.

Hi, dear Anne.
What a nice clear autumn subject and picture. I am impressed with razor sharp and fine details of every leaf and branch as well as with tree branch patter. Cloudy sky through the trees looks great. Thanks for so poetic picture and correct species of flowers from our garden. My compliments and warm regards.
Alexei.

Ciao Anne. Good autumnal taken in great light and perfect sharp. Amazing realistic colours and good contrast.

It would appear from this photo that your fall is much like ours...not quite as bright in colours but changing never the less..I think in our case it was due to 2-3 days of sub freezing then a high wind...they turned brown. Very nice birch1

Ciao Anne,
una bella immagine autunnale di betulle, quest'anno gli alberi sono un po' in ritardo nella colorazione, mentre il freddo è arrivato con un certo anticipo, ma qui da noi ci sono ancora alcune specie di farfalle e libellule che volano; mi piacciono le nuvole bianche e gli sprazzi di azzurro che s'intravedono attraverso i colori delicati delle foglie, magnifica la luce.
Grazie e complimenti
Buona giornata
Con amicizia
Maurizio

Bonjour Anne,
Voilà une image très harmonieuse des premières couleurs d'automne, avec un bon équilibre de la lumière sur le feuillage, les troncs blancs, le ciel et les montagnes enneigées à l'arrière plan. Une belle image pour se préparer aux pulls et au chauffage !
Amicalement,
Hervé

Hello Anne! I love birch too. Nice shot. Very nice natural colours. Good sharpness. Well done!

Hello Anne,

I like the view and the way it is framed!
And this is just what I see when looking out of my window, a birch with a few leaves left...
Good colours and fine details on the background of the blue sky!

Greetings,
Pablo -

Bonjour Anne,
Un cadrage serré, qui convient particulièrement bien à la composition, et une lumière bien maitrisée permettent d'apprecier la finesse des détails et la délicatesse des couleurs.
A bientôt sur TN pour de nouvelles aventures.
