#494 Walnut

Gallery: Weekly ChallengePosted August 6, 201128 views3 comments

It's been awhile, been busy. This I believe is a black walnut. Photo taken in my back yard earlier this year.

Canon 7D, ef70-200 2.8L IS @ 200mm, AP, 1/1000sec, iso 4000, f6.3, no flash, handheld, cropped out about 60% of image.

C&C welcome.

David, the leaves all frame the "black" walnuts so perfectly without ever blocking the view of the walnuts. Good eye to see this composition.

The very even lighting works well here - no blown highlights or too-dark shadows. The image doesn't have a lot of impact, but the colors are beautiful, and there are no distractions. Maybe that little bug?
