Extending an olive branch

Thank you for visiting - ❤ with gratitude! Fave if you like it, add comments below, get beautiful HDR prints at qualityHDR.com.

 

Every season looks differently at beautiful Hakone Gardens in Saratoga, California. There is a huge oak tree with big branches. Here you see one big branch.

 

For the title I chose a Biblical idiom with a different tree - to extend an olive branch is to make an offer of peace, or to approach a foe in the spirit of conciliation.

 

I processed a balanced HDR photo from two RAW exposures.
