Tree, New Zealand
« on: December 23, 2014, 09:20:17 am »

It's nice, as most accurate depictions of nature are, especially when the sky is not blown.

But the image does create an overall impression of ordinariness. Nothing special, in other words.

On the other hand, I wonder if Kevin is just trying to break the rule of thirds.  ;)

Sometimes, Ordinary is just fine. And, I'm not one to follow rules too often. 

Have a great holiday.

This was taken 2 years ago, I guess i wanted to have some depth of field.  I was also trying to optimize the exposure of the sky with the rest of the scene.  Some of the other shot made at this location had a lot more foreground that was much closer in the frame.  The 28mm Phase One lens has great DOF and performs well at all f/stops.
