White birch in winter

Stand of white birch trees (Betula pubescens) with their curving trunks in a snowy landscape, Hverir, north Iceland. This is a very busy shot for a B&W, but I think it works due to the strong white vertical curves of the birch trunks.
This marks the end of the Iceland series.

    Very good look through the B&W shot is perfect in showing off the Birch and extending the eyes to see what is behind

    I love the screen of curved birch trunks with the view beyond. I've really enjoyed our visit with you, to a place I'll never get to go.

    I do love the curves in the birch trunks - I always wonder how many years it took to shape them in that way. I am sad to hear it's the end of your Iceland adventure = I have thoroughly enjoyed it. Thank you.

    I agree; although busy, the white trunks of the birches with their glistening textures really works in b/w and I like the dof that gives us a pretty sharp view of the landscape in the distance! Lovely shot!

    Excellent B&W shot of the lines & patterns formed by the trunks & branches of the birch.
