Symbiotic Cypress

Gallery: FloraPosted August 7, 201175 views5 comments
From yesterday in Jean Lafitte NP. I liked the variety of color against the reddish tones of the cypress trunk. Apologies for the large file even at this size, but compression was really killing this.

Olympus E-3 ZD50-200 @64, Manfrotto 322RC2, ISO 100 1/4 f8 0.0EV

Glad to see you posting in the Flora Gallery, Bill :cool: . Beautiful photo of the Cypress Tree Bark which shows terrific muted tones and gorgeous textures. I also like the corner to corner sharpness in the frame :wavey:

Bill,

I don't remember commenting on one of your images in this gallery before, so welcome to the Flora Gallery. Very fine texture in this but also a well balanced, harmonious composition. A very appealing image, I'd have printed and on my wall in the blink of an eye. I hope you'll post more images over here with us.

Bill: Well seen and captured. This is one image that would have really benefited form posting a 1200 pixel version. Terrific textures. >=))>
