'Y'

Well why not!

After walking about a bit on a not so interesting evening, the sun came out over my shoulder and lit up this tree beside me. I think it's a linden tree, otherwise known as lime or basswood. I liked the golden colour which really stands out against the dark leaves and shadows behind the trunks.

The leaves in front were blowing around in the wind quite a bit and I used a slow shutter speed to let them blur a touch which provides a bit of contrast against the solid limbs.

Front light gives no sense of form and flattens the shape, although the shadows do provide some depth to the shot.
