Some Eucs

Post by GavinG »

Some trees I found down near Lanyon, ACT.

We should never be worried about making our designs too "wild". There's always something more insane out there.

Ditto. Most of my branches don't have this kind of energy.

Old Euc leaves with the light behind them. New and old Euc leaves are often radiantly beautiful.

It is not always possible to put all the wild twists and turns into something small scale Gavin. I think all we can do is try to 'suggest' that sort of energy/contortion/movement in our miniature versions but someone else has said never stop trying. Who knows when someone will discover a way to do it better.

The tree looks like a side view of a hand and the branches are fingers. Nice shot of the leaves too.

I'll try some Euc's when i have a bit more confidence.
