Just a tree

[chauncey]

But there's a story that involves "can I do that?"
We're, the six kids and me, driving around the park with a 300mm lens on my 1Ds3 when one of them says back up and take a picture of that tree. "It's too cold to leave my warm truck and no room to move back" I say, plus the tree is heavily backlit. "You can do it Dad, your the Photoshop guy"
Now that was a challenge...I fired off about 12 images for a photo-merge/stack times three (different exposures). I'll be damned...it worked. Native resolution @300 dpi is 34" tall.

Very beautiful; a justified placement of the tree at the center

Moral of the story: When you leave the home with your camera, always take your six kids with you.

Definitely a keeper image!
