Willow Tree

Booked in and took a trip to St Fagans, the Welsh National Museum of History as it's back open but only to those who book in and then there's set numbers allowed in daily so its nice and quiet. Saw this tree that took my fancy with the way the light was hitting it.

Hi Gareth, the first set are about the tree itself and its the monochrome for me as the foliage appears the strong element which i like. the second set is introducing reflections but one is fighting the other .so neither wins IMHO

Beautiful light indeed, and well captured. The B+W looks almost IR'd, and its starkness contrasts with the peacefulness of the coloured versions.

What a magnificent tree! I agree with Flan about the B&W being the better capture and for the same reasons.
