Ivy Growth

We went a fairly long walk with the dogs this morning and ended hacking our way through the undergrowth along the river path. Everything seems to have grown so much this year. I spotted this ivy-covered tree and thought it might make a nice subject for a monochrome. It was heavily shaded so I was not able to capture the highlights on the ivy leaves and SilverEfexPro has had to do its magic to produce a decent range of tones.
