Taken yesterday locally at 16mm: the mono at f11, the colour at f22.
I lay on the ground in both cases to either bring in foreground detail or get rid of unwanted stuff at the horizon.
The mono tree is on Minchinhampton Common; the beeches are near Daneway...both near Stroud.
Contrast-masking a lo-contrast raw-conversion, then dodging/burning sky, ensured the sky looks more dramatic than it did at the time.
Just warmed up the foreground a bit here; it was late afternoon and the colour temperature was up:
Yes, the mono is my fave too really.
