Tavistock Square

#BlueSkyArtShow #Peaceful
#Photography

Landscape format double exposure photograph combining the head and shoulders of a statue of Gandi with bare branches of trees in the Tavistock Square peace garden.

Soft blue sky with light white fluffy clouds fill the frame of the picture, dark tree branches resemble veins running through the silhouette of the statue give it a surreal, yet tranquil and natural appearance.

Thanks for checking out my photography, I hope you enjoyed the picture.
