Thanks for your input, Chris. cheerful I really like this tree (wow, it does look like a hand reaching down into the ground). I know what you mean about trees like this, my best captures seem to be around big trees (probably their strength of energy). I also see this photo as full of spirits. The man in the trees was most clear to me and I was amazed at the realistic details of his nose and lips.

Embarrassing as it is to say, I went up to this tree and touched it lovingly before the photograph. I wanted to give it some appreciation and ask for a good photo.

If you want to look at it more closely, here's the original in full size. eyeball
