This photo was taken at little Germany Bradford a few days after the heavy snow fall. I took several photos and have a good selection of that area this is my favourite one.

Snow in Bradford. It’s a long time since we had so much snow so I made my duty to take a lot of photos here is a sample. See how the trees look so fabulous with the snow on the branches.

Shipley Glen Park Bradford.

This is a dead tree but it stands tall in this park, much shorter now because it has no branches or leafs. Notice the pattern at the top white patches with black shades and a rotting look near the bottom and a long root from another tree surrounding the base of the tree.

On the third November 2008 Dominica celebrated its 30th year as an independent nation. I participated in the celebrations and also photograph the event and took video footage.

 This photo is evidence of the last lap carnival which is the final event to take place after weeks of celebrations, building up to Independence Day. The colours and style of the costumes are a national heritage which are used on special occasions.

The Caribbean Island of Dominica (pronounced Dom -in-eek -a) is located between the two French islands Martinique in the south and Guadeloupe in the north.

This photo was taken by me. It was my first time to that part of the park I did not know it existed. I was excited when I saw it. This picture has a rich color of red, brown, green and grey.

In the middle of the trees what I see looks like a road covered with leafs falling from the trees, because of the time on the year. Looking straight to the horizon through the trees you can just about see the grey sky.

Half way down on the left there is a tree with grayish spots tall with no leafs at all, and on the opposite side several trees with a rich color of red, yellow and a rusty brown color with Just a few green trees.

The Card Players

Here is a painting of two card players 1890-1892 by Paul Cezanne.

This painting is rich in colour, the table cloth is a rich orange to red with a slight yellow. In the centre of the picture to the left and right of each player is a bottle of wine almost blending with the background.

The player on the left is sitting up straight with a white pipe in his mouth, his legs wide open his hand on the edge of the table and completely in the picture sitting up straight. While his partner is leaning forward into the table taking up more of the table, with his legs close together.

He is also lighter than his partner with a yellowish jacket. His partner in a brown jacket with shades of light making parts of it look like it is wearing out of colour. The floor seems to be greyish to yellow colour or it could be light reflection creating this effect.

Both players seem to be concentrating on their cards, in the back ground there is a reflection of both players in the glass. The colours used make this picture very interesting with the dark shades of brown, grey and black.

Still Life with Compotier 1879-1882

Still Life with Compotier 1879-1882 Cezanne

This painting displays a white to silver bowl with dark green grapes and four oranges to the foreground of the painting. The background has a kind of stone effect, like a carving with leafs carved to the top left and right with shades of silver almost looking like ice.

There are also shades of green which could be a reflection from the green fruits. The platform which the bowl stands on is brown stone flags with different shades of brown. The apples have a rich green and red color with detailed lines making them stand out. There is a glass with water that stands out beautifully because of the lines that defines the shape of the glass.

The cloth that the fruits are on has detailed lines with different shades of colors, with a knife placed just below the apples. There is a strong line of black to brown and light brown dividing the stones from the foreground. All the objects have defined lines which bring out the beauty of this painting.
