glorious Paul. a symphony for my eyes.

Wonderful light on the hedges, it gives the entire image a feel of this is over the horizon into a different world.
The cable adds curiosity…
halftone
Oh that is so beautiful! Love the light on the hills in the background, and the light on the gorgeous cypress in the foreground….I feel like I’m there….wanting to spread the branches and see what’s behind!
Carmelh
Love the lighting and the striking contrast between the hedge and the mountains….
John Conway
it really is all about the lighting Paul, your style still shines through, but its the way you capture light that captivates the viewer, top drawer work.
JimFilmer
the reduction in the colour palette has worked very well (again) – you are the master at taking what could have been a hum-drum scene and making it into something to view, to be intrigued by… excellent Paul.
Kathryn Potempski
wonderful capture the lighting is so cool something you are a master with congrats
ian taylor
i have to say it i totaly agree with jim and jhon ,first class picture
tomg
Wonderful lighting Paul, looks like a fine watercolour …
Sharon Hammond
Look at that light…and you’ve kept the detail in the f/g. Nice work
Karin Taylor
yes, wonderful, really does have many attributes of a beautiful painting…i love those soft grey hills the depth of cloud and sky and the amazing and somewhat unusual light play on the foreground ‘hedge’ – K

Paul, Are you inventing a new kind of photography ?

Oh by the way …Its beautiful to look at
Rhys Jones
Stunning Imagery, beautiful depth
Lindsay Blamey
Great image – love the processing.
dimsim
mad .. completely mad 8)
Sandra Chung
Oh Marvy!
Simone Byrne
Great shot Paul and lovely treatment, I really like the square crop too, but I think mostly its the wavey patterns of light, first with the edges of the bushes, then the mountains and then the clouds, it all balances beautifully!
Spidermike
cool
Pip Gerard
I’m intrigued as to what that is dangling over the hedge… care to share?
Love the cloud shadows & the grey tones on the mountains.
And I can see cool dark kinda scary faces in the hedges – could just be my warped mind though ; )
aglaia b
king of those wonderful muted tones! ;-) xox
amorspainter
verry graphic

ziko
Well done Paul. A typical Vanzella. Stylish and simple. Love it
Zaldy Infante
the string in the middle of this image is an inspiring reminder of the great “I AM” that holds it all together.
budrfli
i love the subtleties and depthsin this artistic masterpiece
Sorina Williams
I love the textures of the three layers!
RebeccaT
Such beautiful work – the light creating all these wonderful textures…it’s just fantastic.
Darren Burdell
Super stylish piece, love your framing and the tonal ‘flatness’.
Mark Ross
Love the delicacy here. The soft, rather pale tones you get while still maintaining that brightness and contrast that’s needed. This image, like all of your work Paul, makes one stop and ponder… what’s going on here? Like a short story with an enigmatic story line. This is your special way of seeing the world and it’s just that, special!
Angel W~
gorgeous!!!
laurenrabbit
The light is the key. Captivating.
ruxique
Beautiful, the light is magic :)
mstrace
goodness me…simply gorgeous. where was this taken?
~ Selle
Love the contrasts in textures and colours. You lightig is brilliant . But what I like most is the sense of adventure here….. and the hope that maybe outside of our cloistered hedged in worlds there is something more just waiting for us to discover.
Heather Rivet...
great textures and colors ..the painterly look love it
shanghaiwu
YES
you have style/the shades of light are brilliant
AnaCBStudio
like a painting…awesome work Paul!
animo
great image – with those cable spacers adding the cream. love your flirtation with symmetry here too.
Dave Hiskey
interesting and puzzling picture…whatever happens, Paul, you make people think…I’ll be honest
it’s not my favourite Vanzella image…but your standard is so high I can find lots to admire.
Mel Brackstone
Beautiful bright light :)
Larry Stewart
I simply don’t know how you do it – how you make the ordinary seem so amazing. Great capture Paul. Instant fave.
billyboy
Paul, leave it to you to do a picture featuring a power line with aviation markers!
But OK, it’s what most of us see over our hedges… more and more these days. Seems advancement of technology and feeding of our creature comforts is creeping up and taking us from behind… sort of like in Man and Machine, but in a slightly more subtle way.
Hope I’m getting your drift here… or maybe power lines will become artistic embellishments… like graffiti on NYC subway cars.
I like that your slightly dull processing makes the intrusion seem to blend in… like we hardly even notice anymore. Paul, stop. You’re making me think again…
Danielle Prowse
LOVE the lighting!!! And the powelines just finishes it off…great to see how something that is usually a pain the the bum while shoot pics can actually be turned around into a feature!!
Shanina Conway
So beautiful Paul, it looks like a fine painting;)
chelsgus
It looks very much like a painting! – how much do I like this one then?!!?
It’s a really interesting shot. Love it.
Tracey Mac
Wonderful image Paul…..love the colours and the lighting which actually drags the eye over the hedge, past the power line and onto those distant mountains….so well done…
meanderthal
really beautiful colours here… love the desaturated look…. strong composition and wonderful textures at play… excellent stuff!
KiwiAna
Great Contrasts, reminds me of the NZ regional artist Rita Angus
Joanne Bradley
Excellent composition! Love how the foreground is in shadow, lifting our eyes towards the light on the mountain top!
Jeff Burns
Lighting is unreal. Great work once again and like always! WOW
Gerijuliaj
This looks amazing Paul. It looks a bit like the view from the view from my new yet to be lived in lounge room in the Adelaide Hills. Will put it up tomorrow.
LauraHartley
Shadows, light, grass, mountain, power lines – signs that God himself touched your shoulder and said, “Now, Paul. NOW. Take the shot. And wow, ya did. Damn.

SelinaEM

Ian James
Cool Image Paul. The tones make it look like a painting very subtle. I like the way the light hits the top of the hedge.
KcranmerArt
And Paul does it again…amazing tones you know…no matter what you shoot it’s always SUPERB!
ellejayerose

Ushna Sardar

Jennifer Woodward
Loving the lighting here Paul, AND the painterly feel, beautiful… just hopping over the hedge now, I’ll let you know what’s over there! :-)
Harmony Nicholas
Lovely work as always Paul :)
Makes me think of all those old 70s photographs of Finland and how people used to plaster their walls with forest scenes and mountain ranges. I LOVED that sort of thing! Great kitsch feel you have going on here :D
Clare McClelland
Lovely layers…
ltruskett
Your colour work here is sublime…....... simple and devastatingly beautiful…......
