Sunlight Through the Trees - stock photo

Sunlight Through the Trees. Another of those points walking on the trail from Franklin Falls where I found myself looking to the skies above. Here I decided to focus on not just including the sunlight but also the sun itself. But I've learned from past experience to not go with a full "exposure" to the sun. So I waited for the trees as they moved with a passing breeze to partial block the sun. It was only later that I'd wished I'd remembered to close down the aperture to try to catch more of a starburst look...maybe next time :-) Anywho, I later then later pulled out areas in shadows in Capture NX2 and I added a Pro Contrast and Foliage CEP filter to bring out the mood for sunlight on the tree leaves for the final image.
