Tree Tunnel, Watermead Park

Tree Tunnel, Watermead Park, Leicestershire

This shot is was taken one lunch time in Autumn. I’d gone out a few days earlier in search of rich autumnal colours but I didn’t really see anything that I liked. When I found this scene I was intrigued by the light more than the colours and knew it could look really striking in black and white.

Unfortunately it was windy and the end result had some movement in, so I made a note to come back again when conditions were better.

This retaken effort was processed in exactly the same way as the original but fortunately none of the leaves are blurred :)

    Absolutely stunning.
    One can see that you really are working with lines and geometry.
    Kind regards

    Thanks Kim. It’s odd how difficult it is to go back and retake a previous shot, as whilst correcting some of the flaws from the original (which can be found here - http://www.flickr.com/photos/maxakropolis/3992657193/ ) I’ve also accidentally altered the composition slightly and the balance of the shot isn’t the same.
