Old Tree

There is a movement afoot where i work to cut down trees. The reason given is that they are infected. I wanted to make a record of those I was able to catch. This tree has seen a lot of years.

I recently purchased a Sigma 70mm and am learning macro and macro like photography. The picture, one of my first with the 70mm, was run through Color-Efex Pro

I really like the concept of this image. Looks like this has been in a fire. It makes an interesting and intriguing abstract, almost giving the impression of looking into a cone.

I like this type of image. I'd prefer, though, for more of the shot to be in focus.
