B&W Silver Birch (close-up)
Coming up with different shots again :wink:

Here's a closer look at part of the Silver Birch.sheading its outer bark.

I went for B&W for this one, as i really like the tones.Plus there is hardly any B&W photographs posted on this forum ?.Which is a real shame IMO.

20D
EF 100 2.8 macro lens
ISO 100
2 sec @ f22
Expo comp -1/3

C & C welcome

Thanks for looking :wavey:

Very nice works for me. I took some bark shots this weekend and was thinking about doing this my self.

Lovely image and take your point about lack of b&w images.

Cheers

I tried something like this when I was out in Australia as nearly every photography gallery I went in out there had similar shots to this although usually in bright contasting colours - anyway suffice to say I never really managed to get any decent results. Unlike yours Alan which I really like and especially so in B&W. And I agree, more B&W please!

Good to se something in B&W here. When I posted my B&W, I thought this community is B&W blind, but response to your great image gives me some hope :biggrin:.

Cheers,
Marko
