 Well she is my wife & was somewhat uncomfortable since the tree was not big enough to rest on it. The minor problem was the slope of the land was towards me from her so I have to bend down a lot to keep the bottom portion as minimum as possible while keeping her visible above to the horizon.I really like the shape of the tree & location of the sun.

In post processing the RAW conversion,level,curves,hue/sat, selective color(major role)were adjusted in photoshop.
