That Tree (Again)

Love this tree.  It's such good value in photographic terms.  The icing on the cake were the patterns of the clouds above.  Whenever I get the chance to get out of the office and head in this direction, I tend to look to see what the scene offers.

Technical: OK, it didn't look quite like that!  I used Nik Software, Silver Efex Pro and used the full dynamic (harsh) preset with a coffee filter.  No further processing other than a slight sharpening.

I'm now looking forward to a few days off work.
