Re: PESO: Penny Tree
The tree is straight, so the slope works. What direction are you shooting? I'd like to see what it looks like around sunrise or sunset. -p On 4/7/2011 6:55 AM, Jack Davis wrote: Thanks, Brian!

Re: PESO: Penny Tree
Thanks you, Steve. There would have been somewhat more at the bottom had I not cropped out an ugly fence with painted steel posts. More foreground "ugly" included dead weeds along the shoulder of an asphalt surfaced road. I'd have shot it from over the fence had there not been a rather steep weedy ditch, with some murky water at the bottom, between me and the fence.
