Location
This photo is extremely special to me, The tree overlooks a lovely lane in the village of Cross House, in South Shropshire where I regularly walk whilst out with my dogs, gathering my thoughts and listening to the sounds of nature. I would sometimes sit underneath this tree in summertime and write poetry and concentrate on my artwork.Time
I took this photo around 5.30 in September 2007, I remember how beautiful the tree looked with the sun lowering in the horizon, there was a chill in the air, and yet I always feel great warmth when looking at this photo.Lighting
I was struck by the beauty of the sunset with the silhouette of the tree in front, the light from the sun through the branches gave it a majestic feel.Equipment
This photo was taken using my Canon Digital IXUS 500 CameraInspiration
The beauty and solitude of the tree with the sun setting in the horizon, illuminating the silhouette and it's beauty inspired me to take this photo.Editing
I didn't do any post processing.In my camera bag
I don't take out any equipment in my bag, I'm currently saving at the moment for a camera that will enable me to take more professional photographs, I'm interested in nature and wildlife photography.Feedback
