Landscape

A tree forms a silhouette to the setting sun

Some of my favourite components come together in this picture. I love the way the tree shadows can mirror the shape of the tree itself and it can be fun trying to get the composition to just allow the sun to peek around a branch. This time rather than a direct line to the sun, it is the sun’s reflection on the water that needed to be placed in a suitable position.
