Spring Branches

Went for a nice walk through the trails this morning and the leaves were the perfect size, just before they get too big and start really obstructing each other.

This is my favourite shot, would love to hear your thoughts!

Thanks for taking a look

Put this up late last night so coffee bump!

Square crop FTW

Maybe a tad too busy for me but I like the way you have "layers" of more or less the same thing, but one in focus and the other not.

What lens did you use for this?

Love it!!
The lines, the color. The DOF.

Thanks guys

Cyni, yeah I wish the right side was a little less crowded, this was the best angle I could get and I hate taking things out in post. It was taken with my Canon 100-400, it's near the tops of the trees.

Why not color? I love the dof!

Hey Sonic, I decided on B&W because the colours contributed nothing to the shot but rather detracted from the details in the leaves which I think are one of the most important parts of the image.
