It was sometime after 4:30 a.m., I couldn’t sleep and went downstairs to read and have something to drink. I read for a few minutes, and then – it wasn’t too long – I saw the morning light come up behind the fog, and I saw the faintest outlines of our other apple tree, the one behind the pole barn.
I always want to photograph this beautiful and evocative tree, but I usually can’t find the right angle. This morning, as I walked out the back (yes, with no clothes but a working shirt) and towards the sun, the little apple tree emerged from the clouds, she was almost magically back lit, and by the sun, no less.
I think this was the photograph I was waiting for, mystical, even eerie, yet beautiful and broody.
This is a winner. Magnificent. It will sell, I am certain, if you decide to put it up for sale. Just magnificent.
