A Stately Elm

Gallery: Photo ArtPosted August 26, 20061,479 views7 comments

An image of the stately elm that graces Cook's Meadow in Yosemite, NP. Converted the image to B&W, selective dodge and burn and applied a vignette effect. Nikon D200, 24-120mm lens at 78mm, F/8 @ 1/25s. Appreciate any comments/critiques.

Almost looks like a IR image. If possible I would place the tree out of center but nice work anyway.

Awesome photo.

The right side of the tree clearly stands out of the background but the left seams to blend a bit with the tree that seems to be in the foreground. Tough to tell maybe its in the background.

Otherwise, truly beautiful.
