Birch

I have always loved Birch trees. I think they look especially amazing in the midst of an evergreen grouping or in a dense grouping of White Birch trees.  I was trying to figure out a way to capture the beauty of this tree the other morning. I tried several test shots, sort of looking for a focal point or point of interest and couldn't find anything remarkable. Over and over I have read in the photography books-- "change your angle." So I did. I laid down on my back and took a shot straight up.  I love the blues and greens and the peaceful blur of it outside of the focal point.
