I have mixed feelings about this photo. I think I came close to a neat sort of painted woods effect, but I think I zoomed in just a little too much. I've tried this with darker trees and with bamboo and it hasn't worked. I don't know why this one worked (sort of). It's a birch grove on a trail in Capitol Forest. Was it the lighting? Or the white trunks? I'll have to keep working on this. f/22 at 1/80, ISO200.
