The Little Tree (1961)
“From the window of my bedroom I noticed a little shad-blow tree… I photographed it on 35-mm color film in every season and at all hours of the day… [Pare] Lorentz, like the great documentary film-man he is, immediately suggested that I transfer these pictures onto movie film and let one dissolve into the other. This struck me as a good idea. But then I thought, why turn these still pictures into a film? Why not start the series over again as a motion picture and take advantage of the wind and the rain and the movements of the water?” (Edward Steichen)
