Summer Erdtree Collage

27 Sep, 2024

a collage of nearly 30 5x7 photos of a tree, reconstructed into the shape of a tree and taped onto a paper backing. There's a hand-drawn oak leaf in the lower right with the words 'Summer - 1 ~75 foot tall oak tree, + 1 100mm lens - 27 photo collage'

For the last few years I've been doing this ridiculous thing where I photograph this incredibly tall oak tree, but despite having a wide enough lens to photograph the whole tree, instead I take a lot of photos with a telephoto lens and turn them into collages. I shot these back in June for the Summer entry but didn't have time to put them together, and with Cohost shutting down (where this project started) I needed to get one final in before the bell.

Please enjoy.
