As you look at the work you produce you can sometimes start to see patterns that emerge. These can be repetitive subjects, similar processing techniques, or any number of other possibilities. I actually think its quite interesting and can constitute a peek into what you are subconsciously interested in.
One theme that seems to recur in the images that I make is trees. What can I say, I really like them! And while I do a good number in color, I recently realized that when it comes to trees I tend to do most of them in black and white. This particular photo is one that I made just a few weeks ago at Moraine State Park in Portersville, PA.
I recently started photographing with the high resolution Canon 5DsR, and the detail is truly astounding. It is hard to see in a small blog post image, but the white hazy object over that juts over the upper portion of the tree on the right is a large spiderweb. I hadn't even noticed it when I made the photo. On the original image, if you go to 100% magnification, you can easily and distinctly see each individual strand of the web. The spider was not home!
