View out my window

...On a very rainy day!  Perfect day to stay inside and work on a project.  I'm hurrying like crazy to finish up costumes for Sakuracon in April, so I didn't mind the rain at all today as I sewed.  This branch was leaning against the dining room window, where I was working, and I thought it made for an interesting study in focus.

On days when I'm busy around the house I tend to try to get my photos on my walk with Clover, and get really tired of seeing the same things over and over.  I decided to try narrowing down how I see.  Or maybe broadening it, depending on how you look at it.  I decided to be less subject driven.  So today I was looking for a curved shape with a good value spread (white to black).  The tree is backlit, and I converted it to black and white just to focus on shape and value.  I'm happy with how it came out. f/4 at 1/1600, ISO200, 135mm.
