Lovely, really nice.

ISO 80 at 1/125 sec? How bright was it??
November 26th, 2012  
... Or was this a flash shot? Such a shame that was can't see extended information up here, just because some cameras and lenses don't support it.

@cameronknowlton It was that golden hour of the afternoon... if you look at my extras album today, the sycamore tree is in the lower left portion of the photo... the light was wonderful for about 10-15 minutes! I did manipulate the light and shadow just a bit.

I love the light balance and the frame. Shame Lightroom 4 can't frame anymore, I think it really adds a touch of professional class.

This is a stunning photo! Really captures the beauty of the Sycamore.
November 26th, 2012  
I am even more amazed that you took this tree from the other photo. Wonderful!
November 26th, 2012  
The white of the branches look wonderful against the dark background. Lovely processing.

@kathyladley I took it from another photo, about half the size of the one I posted... but it is simply a crop! Thanks for the kind words!

Beautiful

It's funny that you posted a picture of a Sycamore. I was just noticing them the other day and told my husband how much I loved them. They always seem highlighted against the sky....especially when the lighting is just right. You captured this just perfectly. It's a fav!

Gorgeous photo & processing!
November 27th, 2012  
wow, really great contrasts!

@cameronknowlton I have been looking at Lightroom... not sure my old Windows XP is compatible... and I agree that some photos just need a frame to complete it. Thanks for your views and comments!

Beautiful!! I use Lightroom 3.6 on XP. I needed XP for another program.
November 27th, 2012  
@danette ... thank you! Are you happy with the 3.6? I had a friend edit one of my photos with Lightroom 3... I liked the results, only slightly different from my Picasa edit. Haven't had a chance to research the difference between the programs.
November 27th, 2012  
@calm Yes, I was using Picasa as it was so easy and I really have o time to learn something new. I let Lightroom sit for a while but now it's really very easy. I have not done any tutorials, but I should. I would like to add some plug-ins. So much to learn!

@danette Would love to have some time this winter to invest my hobby... a new camera and a new editing program!
November 27th, 2012  
Awesome, fav. I'd like it on my wall

Wonderful shot and crop, love the way it fades from lighter at the top to darkness =)
November 27th, 2012
