Tis-sa-ack Tree

thought I'd use Half Dome as a backdrop rather than the main subject for once.

Beautiful shot Pete. I love the contrast of the subject tree versus everything else in the picture. Did you do any panoramas up there?

Great Pete. I love the image, foreground, background and sky. They all work together to create a stunning photo.

thanks. looking at it today though, I'm not entirely happy with the sky, might have to adjust it bit.

Randy - I took loads of panoramas up there. too many. it's gonna take a while to stitch/PP them all. :rolleyes:

Great shot Pete, I agree with you that the sky could be lightened a bit but the contrast of the trees with the mountain backdrop is great.

here's the adjusted version:

Much better Pete, the mountain stands out against the sky better now.

Nice shot, I do wish the treetops didn't line up so directly with half-dome though.
