Another subject week. Let's get out and shoot forest.....

Just some backgrounds and some ideas:
Photography: Forest Pictures and Pictures of Trees
Trees and forest photography, Martine Berendsen Photography, independent freelance photographer Amsterdam for architecture, portraits, trees and forests, weddings, fashion, business events and editorial.
Light Stalking 11 Haunting Photos of the Jungle

Time Frame: pictures for week 30 are to be taken and posted between
20110219 and 20110227, so from February 19th 2011 - February 27th, 2011.

Rules:
1. Anyone and everyone who is interested in eligible. The goal continues to be
have fun and share comments, concepts, insights, and techniques with fellow
Pentaxians.
2. Each week will feature a Theme and Sub-concept for you to explore.
3. Post your single picture in Project 52-3 thread for the week. Explain what
motivated you to take the picture and/or how you feel it represents the weekly
theme.
4. Some post-processing is OK (adjusting white balance, exposure, color
saturation), but let's try to stay away from heavily PP'ed images here. Try to
keep the creativity to photographic techniques and the captures themselves.
5. Since this project is about technique, and not camera, shots taken by nonPentax
cameras are allowed. Cameras can be SLRs, DSLRs, Point & Shoot and Medium Format.
6. There is one “Theme Concept” labeled “black and white,” but feel free to post
black and white, sepia, monotone, etc., for any of the other themes.
7. The picture you post should be taken during the week in which the theme is
active to be eligible for judging.
8. Any picture taken from 20100731 to listed closing date is acceptable for the two
“Seasonal” competitions – Projects 52-3-51 & 52.

nobody?

[Tamia]

Working on it!

[Voytech]

This qualifies but I'm posting it with some "unease" as it is a copy of your own work Rense.

Very, very beautiful! I had about this idea, but I guess I have to find something else . Ah well, should have been faster with posting mine.....

[Tamia]

Nice one, Voytech, lovely blue. I went abstract as well...

Forest Forms

Fresh Snow in the Woods, fell this morning and already melting!

[jmschrei]

Nice shot Tom! I am going to go with a shot from last weekend for this challenge. It was bitterly cold and by the time I took this shot I was just about frozen.

Thanks, Joe, That shot is worth freezing for! I can't tell for sure if the sun is setting or rising, but I really like it. We have a lot of pretty trees, but we don't have Aspens in Ohio, a really pretty tree.

Tamia, what lens did you use on that shot? Nice aspect!

[Manel Brand]

Walk this morning to the forest but the fog was terrible (not the best time of the year to shoot the forest; everything is in a monotone dark brown).

Converted to B&W as the colors were murky and without grace.

(K10, DA18-55, f/8, 1/180, ISO200)

[Tamia]

You guys have some great forest shots here.

Tom, thanks, I used a Sigma 10-20mm f4-5.6 EX DC for the abstract of the breezy woods. Shot at 10mm, f22, 1/6s, ISO 100. I love this lens.

I posted this on another thread but, since it is a detail of tree bark, I thought it might fit in with this theme.

[Jools]

Great stuff from all.

Here is my take.
Walking through the forest.

[Iris]

Rain, rain and a terrible headache, but I convinced myself to go out and take a p52 picture.

[slowpez]

Stunning Iris.
