Challenge: Free Study 2008-01 (Advanced Editing VI ("Time Lapse"))
Camera: Nikon D200
Lens: Nikon AF Nikkor 20mm f/2.8D

Aperture: 4
ISO: 200
Shutter: 1/125

 Typical canopy shot. This was during a snow storm with low flying clouds. I included the misshapen branch to give the frame some interest and to give it some of my personal style.

Added a slight hue shift in the B&W.
Not expecting to much. Personally I like the photo.

I thought this was just lovely - the toning especially is a nice touch. And I like the perspective that wide angle affords - you really get a sense of the immense height of these trees.

Uh, oh, you scored above a 6 and are in the top 75 in a FS. Hope you are feeling ok :P

I think mist/fog/clouds and trees are such a beautiful and mystical combo. I like the perspective as I get a feeling of really having to tilt my head back to look up. I agree about the crooked branch adding some interest, because it breaks away from the stick-straight patterns of all the other trees. Great shot.

Very nice look... love the mist, and the layered effect that it gives the trees.

Very interesting. Must have been quite tricky to get a shot in that dim light.
