do you know where your christmas tree comes from?

first of all, YES i do ;-)

when i met Christoph last summer and heard that he's a professional christmas tree planter that really pricked my ears. quite interesting to hear how many hours he spends with his trees and how much care they need over the year. i really liked the setting of his plantation where he guided me to and already had in mind to shoot a portrait of him...but in winter when all the trees are covered with snow.
i was pretty busy this week...but "if not now...then when?"....conditions were great so i crawled with my Freelander up the mountain and exposed six LF-frames.
these kind of photographs are not really made for net-viewing...it's a total different experience standing infront of a big LF-print that brings you much closer to the mood of this chilly morning in dezember...
