This hawthorn tree stands beside the River Rother and its twisted trunk made for an appealing photograph. I had to duck beneath the tree’s canopy to get this picture and, as I had no tripod, open up the aperture to get a good shutter speed (and also to throw the river and far bank out of focus).

Lovely shot. The composition works nicely with the square framing.
Thought that I should mention that I picked up five rolls of 400TX. I’m just trying to finish up a roll of Portra 800 for review before I starting shooting black and white in earnest again.
Your recent posts have been a strong motivator for shooting black and white again.
Best wishes – Tobias
