In "tree abstract 1.jpg" the blue of the sky is leaking out of the frame to the left.  Though, if you whitened the sky on the left edge it might be too much to bear; the clarity of the composition is already extreme.

Just got back from Yosemite.  Here is  a couple wild looking tree shots with snow.  More to come.  Although they are not exhibition images I thought they were interesting none the less.  Just wish they were sitting on a nice scenic cliff.  T

Also just got back from Yosemite, for last weekend's monster snow dump.  I was a wee bit more successful in getting cliffs in the shot....  Third one processed from a .jpeg i/o RAW.  Still not totally happy w/the color.

I not a big fan of icons, T, but, as such, your #4 is fine.

"Fine" as in really good.

#1 is my favorite: it immediately stands out and grabs my attention.

Okay, somebody has to revive this thread, so why not me? Some more trees but without significant rocks - as far as I can make out.

Lluch, Mallorca, Islas Baleares, Spain.

The flowering trees have started to come alive as well as the wildflowers here in the west.  With so many great places to shoot its hard to decide where to go and create.  Here some images.  Some of these are the mixture of trees and flowers but what I love about the trees they ground the shot.  They give substance, and complete the scene.  T

À propos of not much, other than overexposure, a word of warning to all D700 users.

I was surprised to find some burned out highlights on a few files made the other day during a shoot along with Chris F; I had secretly wondered whether he was electrostically charged, or something, and had affected the camera's innards, but no, I think I discovered the problem: when doing vertical shots, it turns out that it's terribly easy both to hold one's index finger in the vicinity of the shutter release and inadvertently press the exposure compensation button near it at the same time, whilst scrolling the control wheel at the rear of the camera with the thumb in order to change the shutter speed. Ironic, really, as I was using an electronic cable release. I was exposing everythng at +1 (no, not that +1).

This never happened to me before; I hope it doesn't again.

Okay, not La Seine, not even a river, just the Med; but the idea remains - I hope.

If you would turn this counterclockwise 90 degree you'd have an image of a funny guy with a moustache .... :)

I always find that an open mind improves opportunity; that would make an effective, if brief, A.S.

Ooooh Ken! Ray won't like those bright branches! And especially without a fuzzy monkey or two.
