This image was taken during a Jack Dykinga (the Pulitzer Prize winning photographer) four day workshop...it was an incredible experience, but exhausting getting up at 3:30am, then driving an hour or more to get to the locations by 5am in order to set up before sunrise, shooting until an hour after sunrise, critiquing until 2pm, eating lunch, driving to the evening shoot, shooting until dark and afterward, driving home, editing images for next morning critique until midnight, bed, then up in 3.5 hours..at my age, it's pretty tiring..haha. What a wonderful experience it was; Jack Dykinga is very easy to work with and extremely helpful and funny; he sees light and color and shape in a way that just amazes me...hopefully, I will retain some of what he taught us...last night I slept almost 12 hours; feeling pretty perky today...lived for 4 days on coffee to keep up my energy level...this was taken at sunset along a tree line, I found this tree with the interesting branch, showed it to Jack; he liked it!; I set up in front of it across a road, then he had the rest of the group come over to shoot it... curves, no cropping, healing brush to remove some sensor dust, selective color, usm

| Nice and pleasant. The silhouette of the tree frames it all nicely. It's a good shot, though not outstanding from a lot of other sunset shots. |
