I was at home Thursday working on a project for the day job; I happen to glance out the window and spotted this backlit sumac. Knowing this light would not last long I grabbed the camera and rushed outside. I managed three shots before the light faded; this was the best of the comps. I did crop the top and bottom a bit and cleaned up the background a bit. I love the light here and with the black background the bright sunlit green leaves seem to pop off the screen. Thanks for looking and comments always welcome!

David, super shot! IMO it's perfectly composed, well executed shot with strong graphic lines, great light and the added bonus of the bug in silhouette. One of your best shots I think! Well done.

Nice job on this one, David - I agree with Wayne when he calls it one of your best. Thanks for posting!

Outstanding David! Really nice contrasting green and dark BG - and a lot of interesting things going on with the light to pull me in to look around. Beautiful shot!
