Attempted to capture the 7 zones in one of Ansel Adams forest floor, winter scenes. The evergreens framing a wood pile seemd to fit the type of scene he would photograph (imho). One of the defining charateristics (of many) in an Ansel Adams photgraph is the sharp detail from front to back. I tried to imitate that by using an aperature of f-32. However, I obviously had to compensate with a slower shutter speed. Basically, happy with the results except I would have liked to have more bare wood in the pile exposed to make it clear that it is a wood pile without having to say so in the title.
