With the sky a clear blue, there wasn&#8217;t going to be much interest there, so I needed some thing bold to put in the foreground. The bare trees are quite interesting and remind me of the position and sizing of blood vessels when looked at under a microscope. The complete silhouette of the tree works better I think than the image where some detail is visible in the trunk (see final image in post) as it is?too obvious what it is compared to the image above.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-4401\" src=\"http:\/\/www.gowerphotography.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/04\/Welsh-Moor20150124_DCS5499-600x400.jpg\" alt=\"Welsh Moor20150124_DCS5499\" width=\"600\" height=\"400\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.gowerphotography.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/04\/Welsh-Moor20150124_DCS5499-600x400.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.gowerphotography.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/04\/Welsh-Moor20150124_DCS5499-150x100.jpg 150w, https:\/\/www.gowerphotography.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/04\/Welsh-Moor20150124_DCS5499-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.gowerphotography.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/04\/Welsh-Moor20150124_DCS5499-900x600.jpg 900w, https:\/\/www.gowerphotography.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/04\/Welsh-Moor20150124_DCS5499.jpg 1000w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>When the moon came out and even though it was only a small crescent, it provided some interest in the sky. By using a wide angle lens, it distorted the position of the branches closest to the camera and made it look as if they were arranged in?a crescent around the moon.<\/p>\n<p>My final attempt at a tree image (above) fell slightly in between what I think it should be. It should either be a complete silhouette like the first image, or be lighter and show more detail in the trunk area. I think I may play around with the processing again to see what I can get.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-4392\" src=\"http:\/\/www.gowerphotography.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/04\/Welsh-Moor20150124_DCS5517-400x600.jpg\" alt=\"Welsh Moor20150124_DCS5517\" width=\"400\" height=\"600\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.gowerphotography.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/04\/Welsh-Moor20150124_DCS5517-400x600.jpg 400w, https:\/\/www.gowerphotography.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/04\/Welsh-Moor20150124_DCS5517-100x150.jpg 100w, https:\/\/www.gowerphotography.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/04\/Welsh-Moor20150124_DCS5517.jpg 667w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 400px) 100vw, 400px\" \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&nbsp; It was getting close to dusk when I got to Welsh Moor, so I knew my subject options were limited.
