Trees
Trees are the kings of the plant world and tree pictures are some of the most beautiful in the photography world. Perennial by definition, trees have the longest lives of any plant, longer than many animals. For this reason, trees have always been part of humankind’s imagination, mysteries of nature. Tree pictures and imagery have existed in art and literature since humans learned to form their fingers around a pen or brush. The Bible’s first book, Genesis, opens on the first man and woman contemplating the Tree of Knowledge, and the Bible’s last book, Revelation, ends with humanity inhabiting a new world, in which grows the Tree of Life. Norse religion held that the entire universe hung in the branches of Yggdrasil, a giant ash. The Greeks believed in dryads, tree spirits. In India, tradition held that the mystical Tree of the Sun and Moon had oracular powers, speaking from the point of view of a man during the day and of a woman at night. Both Marco Polo and Alexander the Great sought out this tree when they arrived in India. The volume of tree pictures in contemporary photography attests to the lingering enchantment that the tree holds in our modern world. Read More...
