The parable of the Broccoli Tree

The tree is the protagonist, but rather a passive one, letting the plot unfold around it. Each photo contains a story of its own. Its all in the details and very often with a humorous twist. Just beautiful would bore me to death.

Most people passing by when Im shooting dont have a clue what Im doing, being all caught up with the beautiful view of the lake. And a beach with trees on it. But this is my way of forcing the beholder to see what I see. Its all about framing and what randomly takes place when Im there. Sometimes its the most beautiful sky. Sometimes its a couple in their nineties taking a walk. Sometimes its birds, or stars, or just so so grey and dull. But its almost never about the tree itself. And I cant do magic Ive had aurora borealis (or the northern lights), but some things just cant be. For example, the tree and the lake are positioned straight to the North, so you will never see a sunset behind the tree in @thebroccolitree timeline. No matter what.
