Standing on the highest part of the Yorkshire Wolds on Garrowby Hill are a few stands of tall and beautiful mature beech trees growing on top of ancient burial mounds from Neolithic times.
Garrowby Hill is one of the most exposed areas of the Wolds and, as such, can often take the worst weather for miles around. On this particular day, a powerful icy cold wind raced across the hilltop. The combination of moisture from low clouds and the icy wind meant that any exposed trees, bushes, fences, and grasses became coated in thick hoar frost. Whilst these trees look to be full of growth, and the image taken on infrared, what you actually see is the dense icicles spread on every twig and branch creating a wonderful display of nature’s beauty and might!
I’m often reminded by this image of how, throughout life, we are exposed to so much hardship, personal and family struggles, and sorrow that, by using our ability to stick together, we support each other and with this togetherness, survive these trials.
These trees receive so much hardship sitting on the most exposed landscape for miles, yet they still continue to stand tall and be seen from a distance, proud and defiant!
I dedicate this image to my close family and friends! Thank you for keeping me standing tall!
CURATOR NOTE
Trees standing together. Covered in ice. There is strength in being together. I love that the ice is creating an illusion of full growth and infrared filters.
THE ARTIST
Paul Moon is a landscape photographer from the United Kingdom who works in and around the Yorkshire Wolds. This is an area of chalk upland and was recently made famous by the artist David Hockney who painted and drew in many of the places he photographs. He has had two books published on the City of York and leads workshops, photography walks, and gives talks about his work. He has also had his images used by local tourism providers to promote the area.
More than two dozen photographers, a dozen countries, an age range of nearly 40 years (possibly more, but some won’t tell), multiple languages, and varied styles. Our team consists of members from around the world. We include photographers from Australia, Canada, England, France, Germany, India, Italy, Northern Ireland, Russia, Spain, Turkey, and the United States.
What could possibly bring this diverse group together? There’s only one thing in the world strong enough to do that: a deep love for photography.
Our collective was formed on the intentional basis of being DIFFERENT - different artists with different backgrounds, different races, languages, ability/disability, ages, and genres.
When the theme was announced there was a collective sigh, literally heard round the world. In all honesty, the theme of TOGETHER presented a challenge to nearly every single person on the team. From landscape, travel, nature, astro, portrait, fine art, urbanscape, and conceptual photographers, we’ve all literally spent the past two years ALONE.
World conditions have left everyone in isolation. The thought of “TOGETHER” was at the same time refreshing and terrifying. A few members panicked, some laughed, some left, most cringed at the thought. But in the end, the theme of TOGETHER has brought us TOGETHER.
We’ve dug through our archives, shot new images, edited like crazy, and shared critiques. Then we went back and started all over again!
This collective is the labor of our love, created with laughter, fun, and friendship. With our members spread over at least a dozen time zones, meetings were sometimes varied, crazy, and broken into smaller parts depending on the parts of the world. When you think about that accomplishment alone, accomplished with a bunch of creatives no less, you realize the depth of the loyalty to the project, to the team, and to each other.
Long late nights filled with love, laughter, jokes, craziness, and support have been the backbone of this project since the beginning.
For members of the team who are just beginning their NFT journey, it is an honor to be included with seriously talented photographers, who have been secretly discovered to be just normal people. We are all photographers but we don’t act like competitors. The community and support have been the stuff of legends. We want everyone to make it. Together as a team, we have been able to celebrate victories, face challenges, share as we have won awards, been represented by galleries, sold limited edition fine art prints, and are helping ensure everyone on our team is kicking it in the NFT world.
Through it all there is one common theme: every single member shares the same passion for photography. When asked what the best part of our team is, one member replied, “Love, kindness, love, happiness, love!”
Or, as they say in Ireland, the craic!
