This is a shot I've been meaning to do for a while. These two trees are massive Live Oaks situated in a large field all by themselves several miles out in a Wildlife Management Area that I hike at often. Since it's far out it's often a gamble whether the light will be any good and oftentimes rain will wash out the trails making it difficult to go. Anyway, a few months ago I went into the mass of tree and found it quite engaging. I knew a super wide-angle would be perfect for such a photo. It was a cloudy day but right when I got here the sun came out for about 30 minutes, so I got lucky.
It was really hard to shoot because it was so contrasty with the extreme backlighting. I might print this in the darkroom.
