Slash Pine Bark

skipper954 · 13-10-2006, 18:02

Took a trip to Corkscrew Sanctuary in Florida, an Audobon site. Great for birds, terrible for landscapes. I was hoping to get a Clyde Butcher everglades shot, but out of 100 images, there was only this one that was remotely worth posting.

I like the pattern and colors of the bark on the tree. Except for a bit of exposure and shadow editing in ps, there was no post processing.

I used my trusty d70 at 1000sec @f/4.5 and 70mm (digital) focal length.

Also, I am trying to get my sizing right for this website. Am I closer? Used ps2, size for web, 72dpi, etc.

Thanks for your help.

Good texture their Skip. Seems like you took the shot at the right time of day to get some shadows from a low sun. SIzing looks fine to me

No mention of mono?????? :P

skipper954, nice texture, I might be inclined to crop the areas of greenery of left and right.
I also think a Filters > Sharpen > Unsharp Mask might look good to bring out the edges slightly?
