The ragged tree

Gers, France

An evening shot from a hilltop road looking down onto a field that had been newly harvested. From a distance the stubble in the field looked like the brush stokes of a painting and provided a textured backdrop for the ragged tree.

Canon EOS 40D ,Canon EF 70-200mm f/2.8L IS USM
1/400s f/3.5 at 200.0mm iso100 full exif

On the thumbnail I thought there was a hidden fountain in the foreground spraying water in front of the tree. Amazing texture and "trompe l'oeil", well done for the clever spotting and neat composition, Steve. Another first class shot. Voted.

Steve, this is marvelous ... without your clarification, I wasn't sure what the background was. From the thumbnail, I thought perhaps rain. Well seen ... BIG vote on this one.
