This is an interesting use of the “Warhol effect” I think. From my vague understanding of Warhol, he used these exaggerated luminous candy colours for a simultaneous attraction/alienation effect. (Did he ? That sounds like typical Artspeak!)

Probably just because he liked them. Best to adopt the same attitude, I think: make images in colours that you like, that other people might like. I think the exaggerated tones here do reflect something that IS there. Rather like the wild colours against my own “Platform “ photo, which you liked, Frank, have a fidelity to the wild forms and colours that really were there when the flares of gas burn-off once filled that industrial area. Phew!

Just a long-winded way of saying that I like this experiment. And the title pushes us towards the feeling that these saturated, hyper-real hues represent a joyful sense of possibilities, even for “ aged trees” like you and me…

Well said Steve. Thanks for your thought process, it makes me think it deeper as well.

Everlasting hope - may it remain with us.
Wonderful silhouette photography and a great perspective, Frank!
The quote from A. Warhol is thought-provoking - which I think is one of the great tasks of art.
