Trees and Crows 2006

"Trees and Crows" is a photograph by Abbas Kiarostami, renowned Iranian filmmaker and photographer, taken in 2006. The image captures a simple scene of a row of trees lining a grassy area, with a single crow perched at the edge of the frame. Kiarostami’s minimalist approach focuses on the natural world, emphasizing the textures of the tree bark and the vibrant green of the grass, creating a sense of tranquility. The lone crow adds a touch of mystery and contemplation to the scene. This photograph, like much of Kiarostami's work, is both visually striking and thought-provoking, inviting viewers to pause and reflect on the beauty of the everyday.
