Loweswater Tree

The first day back at work after nearly a month, it feels good to have something to do with my time again! John took me and the guests for a walk down the side of Loweswater. It poured it down soon as we got into the cover of the woodland. I thought this tree was out of this world, so I took a couple of pictures of it.

For this shot I took two photos and merged them in photoshop, one layer as a vignette and the other as a background. I drew breath and blew onto my UV filter to create a more; pastille, depth less, soft look for the vignette layer and then in photoshop masked off the middle of the shot.
