'Bad' weather #2
The added dimension of so called 'bad' weather in an image is something that interests me more and more photographically.

A foggy morning back in January yielded this image of a sycamore. I played with the composition for quite a while and settled on a full-frame square (if that makes sense) - hopefully it works?

C&C welcomed, cheers, Chris.

1Ds 3
16 - 35 mm
1/640 @ f8 + HDR brackets either side
ISO 50
Handheld.

Simple yet very effective. I can see one of those inspirational work slogans printed underneath this :wink:

Agree with Cheryl, something like "Skive off and take some pictures" :biggrin:

Cracking atmospherics.

Personally I'd like a bit more at the top, or to the right, but it's a cracker :wavey:

Like it.... is this HDR? If so well done handholding...

Yes Phil, it is HDR in the area of the sun (auto bracketing). Because of the lack of anything 'structured' in that area, registration was pretty easy. Forgot the tripod . . . doh!

Cheers,
Chris
