7th December 2013 - Fallen tree

Topic of the Day - Tree

I am busy today getting ready for all the family coming to dinner this evening so don't have time to go out and find a tree. I knew I had some shots which I didn't use when we had the same topic before so I am using a couple of those for today. This is converted to B&W using Nil Efex Pro.

Many thanks for your great comments on my HDR efforts. I am reading them all and hopefully learning as I go. Sorry I am getting behind again with comments on your shots. I will try to catch up tomorrow!!

The reflective tracks complete this image for me, and the positioning of the three largest trees is great.

Beautiful B&W shot.

This is a great b&w, Pam. The tracks, the tree, the textures in the grasses and sky, all work to make a brilliant composition.

[Catherine Pace]

That's a beauty Pam ... such tragedy in fallen trees. Fav

[Jo]

Yes I like the look of this, very nicely done, again, thanks for the info.

[Pam Knowler]

@jo13 Thanks Jo - this is converted to B&W using Nik Silver EFEX Pro. Which is a fab program. I only bought that part of the Nik Suit as I was only interested in doing B&W conversions at that time. Perhaps that was short sighted of me as I would probably have used all of the sub programs eventually. It all depends on the cost for me and I took the cheaper option.

[Frank Hymus]

The tree looks so lacy bare like that. Very nicely shot and great presentation.
