Ooo, I like it a lot. The dynamic contrast seems almost electric in nature.--Chris

Hey, thanks, Chris. This old 55-foot pine tree sits right outside our house. It's as if it was saying to me, "Hey, look here, buddy." -Brian

Nice angle and branch pattern overall. Did you place the branches yourself? Wink

Thanks, Daenna. I did nothing other than look up. The tree has had more than 100 years to decide on the best aesthetic arrangement of its branches. I think it's done a pretty good job. Smile

Good work

I've tried more than once this type of shot without success. Your wait for the winter and the BW treatment seems to be an excellent solution Wink
