About the Image(s)
Grand Tetons last July. The intent is creating a relationship between the tree and its surroundings.
It was a tough composition as there are distractions all over and including neighbouring trees. I had to position the tripod in such an angle to hide all the distractions yet keep the background.
Camera Nikon Z09 with a Nikon 24-120mm zoom lens @f11; S 1/1250 ; iso 400 ; Aperture mode ; Grad ND filter and tripod. lens set @ B&W 100mm focal length.
The B&W ver. of this picture is showing on group 83

Hi Adi - Apologies for attributing the wrong PSA Journal article to you - I meant to commend you for your article "Human Side of Trees" ~ PSA Journal April 2025. I especially enjoyed your Romanian tree images.
Your B&W version has not yet posted in Group 83, but I also could envision this as a good B&W.
I love this tree in silhouette. For your consideration, I've suggested a somewhat tighter crop from the top and bottom to draw viewers to more closely focus on the relationship between this majestic and resilient tree and its surroundings. I also removed one light flower(?) at lower left and slightly lightened and de-saturated the foreground.   Posted: 10/07/2025 00:40:35
