“Photography teaches us to see, and we can see whatever we wish. When I take a photograph, I make a wish. I was always looking for beauty.”
~ George Tice
When I see this George Tice photograph, I am instantly drawn to its sense of tranquility and connection with nature. The dappled sunlight filters through the dense canopy of leaves, creating a soothing interplay of light and shadows. The tree's sturdy branches and broad, gnarled trunk provide a comforting shelter and a feeling of grounding. The rustling leaves whisper in the breeze, and the earthy scent of the forest floor enhances the sensory experience. It's a place for reflection, where one can escape the hustle and bustle of daily life, find solace, and appreciate the simple beauty of the natural world.
