Found this tree growing beside a corrugated metal warehouse wall, and loved the contrast of chaotic natural, and regimented man-made lines. Thought it would make a striking b&w. If you can see the image it means my site is working again!

EOS 1DsMk2, 70-200 f2.8. @ 200mm, desaturated in PS and slight contrast tweak.

Also - thank you very much to everbody who took the time to check if you could find my website during the last few days after it vanished, your observations were extremely helpful; and an extra thank you to those of you who actually went e-snooping to see what the problem might be and on which search-engines I was appearing and who posted on NPN, but also provided personal email suggestions and observations. All your comments will be very helpful in my current dealings with BT, who have still not been able to figure out what was going on.

Looks pretty good to me and also an unusual/different shot which is good. Kewl.

I like the juxtaposition of man made straight lines and the fine twigs and branches. Bet it looks good big.

Hi John,
Glad to see your website up and running again, but completely bewildrered by BT's failure to track down the root of the problem.

`Nice graphic image that would probably be slated by a judge because you hadn't managed to get all the twigs in frame.
