This is a direct in-camera JPEG from the EOS 5D MkII - it has been rotated in pBase, since although the camera recognises file orientation and displays verticals correctly in Adobe Camera Raw, whatever method it uses to encode the orientation is not recognised by pBase correctly. This image looked seriously overexposed on the camera screen, so much that exposure was cut by -1 for further shots, but in fact if anything it's slightly under. The settings were Large Fine JPEG, and Standard look with no custom options. The camera was set to use Lens Shading Correction. Focus was on the tree, but not on its trunk, since allowing the camera to focus on the trunk caused an immediate two-stop overexposure to be set. Instead an area of branches and sky was targeted; this may have set the focus too far forward, but this doesn't explain why the bottom of the trunk is so out of focus compared to the middle at an aperture like f8.
