The shape of the tree is outstanding, and I love how the fence grounds the pic. Really wonderful composition. :toast:

This is sensational. The fog, the light, the tree, the fence all combine for a perfect shot. Your composition skills also show through. Well done, Reno! :toast:

Reno,

Very nice shot with great color and a nice composition.

I was actually born in the Santa Ynez Valley, and miss it very much to this day.

As a testament to how good this photo is, I have hundreds of oak photos that don't hold a candle to this one. Congrats.

Velvia is the reason I can't give up my film camera completely! Lovely job on this shot - it's so moody and I love the detail of the silhouette! I could tell even from the thumbnail that this was California ;)
