Info The Saint Anna Lime is a 300-year-old small-leaved lime tree and a listed natural monument in Kirchhausen, Heilbronn, Germany. View from the north-west at an evening in June. All by Aristeas (talk) 11:36, 8 January 2024 (UTC)
Support I have visited this venerable tree several times over the last years. It was not easy to take a satisfying photo of it – from most angles it is partly obscured by bushes, power lines and other objects or the background spoils the image. But I like this photo. The sky provides a nice background, even the power lines (right) harmonize with the the clouds, and the colours are rather warm and vivid thanks to the evening sun. --Aristeas (talk) 11:36, 8 January 2024 (UTC)- Support The beautiful lighting makes the tree look like it is opening up to the viewer to show its full splendor. The power lines blend in perfectly with the cloud formations going off in all directions. A well-deserved 2nd WLE place; thanks for the nomination! -- Radomianin (talk) 12:20, 8 January 2024 (UTC)

- Support I agree with Radomianin: a flooded brightness on a gorgeous tree, electrical cables that instead of disturbing align with the perspective of the sky, a big rock that with its weight breaks the pattern and seems to lower the level of the ground to the left... If all this is not the result of chance: Congratulations. --Terragio67 (talk) 13:12, 8 January 2024 (UTC)
- Support So many things that are usually uncooperative or annoying for photographers come together brilliantly in this photo. That takes skills. --Cart (talk) 13:32, 8 January 2024 (UTC)
- Support per nomination + Cart, rare to find a picture where the power lines actually help the composition. Cmao20 (talk) 13:56, 8 January 2024 (UTC)
- Support excellent! -- Ivar (talk) 15:22, 8 January 2024 (UTC)

Question I really like the composition and the subject of this image. However, Sony cameras often have an issue with how they interpret colors – in this case, I feel like something is wrong with the greens and yellows. Have you tried toning them down a bit? --Frank Schulenburg (talk) 04:48, 9 January 2024 (UTC)
Comment Agree with Frank Schulenburg. Some color channels are unnatural, imho. --Laitche (talk) 07:22, 9 January 2024 (UTC)
- Frank, Laitche, the photo shows the tree like I remember it from that evening. I think the colours are just the result of the combination of the warm = yellowish light of the evening sun with the fresh green of the leaves. The photo was taken in June, before the green of the leaves gets darker and less vivid. The tree is also at the beginning of its blossom, therefore the yellowish buds and the greenish-yellow bracts increase the yellow-green colouring. The grass is just fresh and green, too. During raw image development I have already reduced the saturation of the green tones (-10) and made the white balance a bit colder (the camera estimated temp. 6400, tint 12, I have changed this to temp. 6000, tint 15). The saturation was not increased. Best, --Aristeas (talk) 09:53, 9 January 2024 (UTC)
- Okay, You convinced me. Support --Laitche (talk) 11:19, 9 January 2024 (UTC)
