Critique Welcomed Medusa

[John Allen]

This is another one from a few years ago. I finally got the new foam seals in the RB67 and am waiting 24 hours for it to set up before running a test roll through the camera. In the meantime, here's a shot of a tree that frustrated the heck out of me. I walked past this tree on the trail many times. Unfortunately, I felt like I never found the right perspective or the right light.

I love it! Trees are such wonderful subject for photography....

 

[Ivar Dahl-Larsen]

Yes Rense is right, it somehow speaks to you, in volume! Very good John. How about a little further away with a short tele and the largest aperture to kind of whisk the others into a blur. I just wonder.

 

[Brian Moore]

It certainly has a medusa quality about it, John. Nicely done.

 

[Rob MacKillop]

Fine tree. It's had a strugglesome life, for sure.

The problem of going back in reverse order is I find the second first. Another fine shot but I prefer the second.
