Snow in the forest

Abstract aerial photography taken with drone, printed on Hahnemühle high quality paper. This aerial nature landscape and my other fine art photography works are limited edition and all of them come with certificate of authenticity.

Since I arrived in Berlin I dreamed of a snowy winter. At the beginning of 2021, finally, the city was reunited with snow, and together they formed a landscape that until then was unknown to me.

At -17C° I headed up to Teufeslberg, the highest part of the city, and from there I took this shot with my drone. Given the extreme temperatures, and unlike other occasions, I had to be very precise in the choice of the places to photograph. Neither I nor my drone would tolerate the cold for long.

And there was the forest, giving me a sort of explosion from the sky, product of the random distribution of the trees and their bare branches, which from above looked like roots.
From the heights, the shapes blend together to form new textures. The traces of man are covered and only nature remains.
The snow generates a special silence that absorbs all the sounds that are usually generated in the forest. And that silence can also be seen.
