Close but definitively no cigar -- of any kind.

Birches are getting the characteristic spring-time redness of their upper branches though.

I bet you, one week from now, the wood anemones will have sprung out. Then I might claim my cigar ;)

I like the rendering of the scene Frank. Very nice background blur and colors.

Frank,

yea, the concept grows with abstraction. When I took the shot I only thought of connecting the poles and using stark colors to mimik the Bjørn / Birna style.

As you asked: yes, another field day for the Neo Noct on the D500
