My goodness, what astonishing images, well done for capturing them so perfectly.
Thanks. I click and point alot with my pocket Canon, but I discovered ‘Depth of Field’ in Paintshop which dramatises a point of focus brilliantly.
Wonderful photography and so well observed.
Thank you. I can’t claim credit for spotting the bark originally though. A friend pointed out how interesting it was on our way round the gardens. (We moved on to stroking the Betula!)
Weird and wonderful.
