Tall backlit grass on Lost Mine Trail in Big Bend National Park. This was on a 4.2 mile, 1,200 foot elevation hike. Sorry about the dirty front element on the lens.

This tree caught my eye while walking up the Lost Mine Trail in Big Bend National Park. I used a 10.5mm Fisheye lens to capture the scene.

A note about the last post: That was an experiment to see what it would do to the traffic. I got a big spike in views on both Flickr and my blog. I also doubled the number of subscriptions to my blog’s RSS feed. Anyway, welcome to all the new eyes on my photostream. I hope you’ll stick around.

At the risk of going back to the well too many often, here is a horizontally shot color image of the tree I posted about two weeks ago. The prior vertical image emphasized the sky even more and this horizontal emphasizes the leading lines of the fence as well as the mountains in the background. What are your thoughts? Which do you like beter?

NOTE: For those of you in the Austin area, Pete Holland will be speaking at the CapMac Advanced Photography SIG this Thursday. Pete will be speaking on Infrared and HDR Landscape Photography.
