Willows In Ice

[Mike Moats]

Found an area with a willow tree at the edge of a lake. Willow leaves everywhere in the ice.

Very nice image, Mike. Love the detail in the leaves. Texture is excellent. And the muted colors work perfectly. Very well done, Mike.

Beautiful textures, shapes and colors!

I think this is my new favorite for the season so far. The long lines of the willow leaves are incredible. I personally wouldn't mind it having a bit more contrast between the two leaves but love it the way it is as well. Merry Christmas, Mike!

Hey Mike,
I really like the strong lines of the darker areas.....very graphic feel......nice tones and details throughout...but what makes this even more for me......is the serated edge of the one leaf on edge.......just adds another texture element. Very well done as always!
