I was inspired by a little book filled with M.C. Escher (1898-1972) woodcuts. He loved to play with perspective much to the delight of his viewers. This photo is unremarkable until turned upside-down. Then it becomes a visual pun as the trees appear to go up a hill. Study the photo for awhile and you'll see what I mean....the reflection is on the top. Hope you like it.

I positively hate Escher's woodcuts - but especially and definitely like your photos.

Awesome shot. I love Escher...he is the best in my estimation. You have given us a photo with that special touch of Escher in it. The mirror reflection is so cool. Great photo.
ReplyDeleteI do like this photo David. Fun to play isn't it. M.C. Escher was a remarkable artist.
ReplyDeleteExcellent work. Mr. Escher would be proud! It really is hard to tell which is the reflection, even after you explained and I turned my laptop (and head) sideways!
ReplyDeleteNice. I agree, it was hard to tell which one is the reflection and the real trees without the help of your instruction. Loved this.
ReplyDeleteI enjoy Escher's work, too, but I'd never have thought of doing this. It's worked so well! Hmm, must find some time to go and experiment ;)
ReplyDeleteIt is a great reflection on Escher and his punning - love it!
ReplyDeleteWow! This is outstanding! I would love to have you link this to Weekend Reflections this weekend.
