This is the same tree as in my previous post, taken less than a few minutes apart with a different exposure settings and the boat a little further away.
I was fortunate that our long-tail driver had good appreciation of photography and understood what I was doing. He actually suggested this spot to us.
We hanged around in this area for a good while. He stopped his engine and used an oar to control the boat's position as I instructed him to move around to frame my shots.
I am so sorry that I haven't been posting or visiting much recently - life is a bit hectic at the moment. I hope it will be more back to normal in a couple of weeks.
I couldn't resist the lure of the Scottish Day in the Life - the feast of St Margaret - challenge today though - it was so lovely to get out at lunchtime in the sunlight. I seem to live life in darkness at the moment - next week sunset is before 4pm. :(
OK - I can't find a Queen Margaret link for this one.
I like the way they plant trees on golf courses - they obviously have never heard of the planting in 3s rule.
Shot on a foggy night with vintage manual Sigma Super-Wide II 24 f2.8. The Pleiades are clearly visible above the fog.

I find something very pleasing about this shot although I'm not quite sure what it is, maybe the light streaming towards me, the texture of the bark, or maybe the uprightness of all the trunks. It's not surprising really because I am a fan of trees! It's a magical forest.
