This photo is absolutely stunning. It immediately caught my eye because of it's very simple but interesting composition. My guess would be that the photographer took this photo at sunrise because of the orange sky and semi low in the sky, sun. Something i really like about this photo is how the tree branches are oblique lines that direct the viewer's eyes to the focal point, the sun and also the main source of light. The photographer chose to emphasize the sun and he mastered this by making sure the tree branches and and budding flowers were silhouetted. I also really like how the background is a soft orange color because it eases the viewer into staring directly at the bright sun. The detail of the budding flowers on the stems of the branches makes a very pretty touch to an already beautiful photo. The title of the photo is "Source of giving life". This works very nicely as the sun is the focal point and dominant part of the picture and it is giving the tree branches the UV rays for their flowers to bloom. As we can see, the blooming has already begun. To top it off the sun has a few shaded rings around it, making it appear holy. This works because it is what is "giving life" to the tree.
