Friendly Friday: Photo Edits
A contribution to the Friendly Friday Photo Challenge: Photo Edits.
A recent post for Becky’s October Squares: Lines photo challenge made me think of the edits I have made to two shots of trees in the autumn. The two shots are of the same group of trees, one is a vertical composition and the other horizontal.
The vertical shot.
A monochrome conversion of the vertical composition.
An edited version of the horizontal composition with a film type border added using Snapseed.

October Squares: Lines of Tree Trunks
This is my contribution for day 11 of Becky’s October Squares: Lines photo challenge.
A confusion of tree trunks in the autumn on the South Bruce Peninsula, Ontario.
CFFC: Trees.
This is my contribution to Cee’s Fun Foto Challenge: Trees.
I had the post written in my head until I started selecting photos. I found a couple of shots I wanted to use but they didn’t fit into the post I was planning so I abandoned my original plan.
Here’s four shots of trees all taken within a quarter mile of our yard when out for a walk with the camera. Sometimes I was experimenting with deliberate camera movement during exposure and on one occasion I was testing a new lens.
Motion blurred trees. Taken when I was experimenting with deliberate camera movement during exposure.
Tree trunks taken on the first outing with my 85mm lens.
Motion blurred tree trunks. Another shot taken when I was experimenting with deliberate camera movement during exposure.
A confusion of tree trunks. Taken with a telephoto lens to isolate the trunks and compress the perspective.
Cee’s Black and White Photo Challenge: Shadows
This is my contribution to Cee’s Black and White Photo Challenge: Shadows.
I decided to go with two images of shadows being cast by trees that are also very different.
Trees and their shadows, Bickerton Hill, Cheshire, England. A film shot from about 25 years ago. Taken with a long telephoto to isolate the trees and shadows as much as possible.
A barcode on the snow. A low winter sun casting long shadows of tree trunks onto snow on the South Bruce Peninsula, Ontario, Canada taken about 18 months ago. This was almost a monochrome image and hardly changed when doing the monochrome conversion.
