    Default Shoulda, Woulda, Coulda.

    Takes a little effort to pull it off what with shooting with a mobil app on an iPad and a tripod with a below horizontal arm attached while composing upside down just a few inches off the ground so the Benro isn't in the shot. I see a few things I wish I had done differently, but the question is...worth the effort to begin with?

    I don't know for sure how much effort was involved but it is a very captivating image... we often don't see the world from that vantage point. Excellent!

    I don't know, fellows. It needs a speed light or something. Maybe find a bigger tree? Or get closer to this one?

    What draws my attention first is the roots. Then up the trunk, drawing in the foliage around it to the canopy. Maybe a little more contrast in those roots. But it's a nice start to experimenting, and there's no reason not to try your other ideas.

    Fabulous capture...regardless of the effort, it was definitely worth it. I quite like the B&W processing.

    That's sorta what I was thinking. Maybe throw a lil'bit of strobe at the base of the tree.
