Oh wow! Great subject with great light, and a beautiful sky as a backdrop! I like everything about this -- framing, angle, color, detail and sharpness in the large. As Roger would say, a home run!

Beautiful light. The tree bark looks amazing under the sun rays. And the sky is perfect for this image. Great capture!

Touchdown (ha, I read Pete's note)! Great afternoon light. The texture of the bark kind of 'feels strange' to me for some reason. Maybe due to its contrast to the sky.

Thanks all! The late afternoon light was especially good today.

nj: I applied some noise reduction using Neat Image; this can affect texture a bit.

nice one... love those madronas. still find it hard to capture their glowing red colors really well, nice job! btw, hopefully soon i will quit my job in tacoma and may well be visiting richmond beach park more often. these 2 hour commutes (each way) are getting very annoying!

anyway, madronas are perhaps my favorites local hardwoods. something magical about them..
