Some very old Holly (I think) trees. Shot in Shropshire, UK last week. I thought it was a good subject for BW. C&C welcome.

    Love it. Interesting lines just drawing me in.
    Just a hobbyist with never enough time to shoot.

    Great B&W conversion. Love the contrast you're getting in the wood. My eye is getting drawn to the upper right quickly because it's a little brighter than the foreground. I wonder if burning that area just a little may help lead the eye from the front to the back.

    Thanks, Tom. I see what you mean about the bright area. I'll work on that. I should have mentioned - I used Silver Efex Pro 2 for the conversions.
