Birch Tree

I have always been fascinated by Birch trees. The small heart shaped leaves with ridges along the edge and the bark that looks like paper. This tree with its patterned bark caught my eye. Especially the stitch pattern to the right of the knot.

This photo was from my walk along the Carman's River in Shirley. Camera was the Canon 5d mkII and processed with Photomatix Tone Mapping program.

 

Birch Trees

Today’s post was made near yesterday’s cattail photograph. Nothing  different, Canon 5d Mark II and processed with both Canon’s Digital Photo Professional and Photomatix Tonal Mapping program.

Birch trees are my favorite trees and they make great subjects.
