Ghost Tree

Shot this on the embankment at Bedford on Saturday night. Apeture f10 and bulb setting for quite some time No lights round this tree, so just lit with the ambient light in the park. Liked the spooky feel, it looks like it should be haunted. Looks quite dark on my monitor at work, but at home on laptop and main pc, lots of detail

Re: Ghost Tree

Thanks, I just thought the movement in the little twigs looked a bit spooky. Actually glad I was with a group as it was quite dark by the river.

Re: Ghost Tree

I like this. I just happened to watch the 80's movie Beetlejuice with my kids this weekend `and I think this would fit right into the set. My monitor shows a lot of detail and a spooky green moss.

Re: Ghost Tree

It's refreshing to see non-cyclists from you Whipspeed And it's inspiring to see you go outside of your comfort zone Good luck with the world champs

Re: Ghost Tree

Easy one to have a go at this Willow, although take a torch to set your focus. It was too dark to really see the detail, so I shone a torch on it, set the focus and then turned the torch off.

Re: Ghost Tree

Thanks Jack, very pleased with the way the 40D has captured this, along with the Sigma 10-20, considering there was no direct light on this tree.
