Fresh & exciting

Both curious and inspired by Rainie's entry I did a little research, watched this video, spent time mentally searching for a tree then took time this afternoon in the sunshine to make my first Pep Ventosa tree image.  Have to say I'm pretty pleased for a first effort.  My second attempt is included in extras and I think I probably like it better than the first one, but I'll let you decide.  I'm already thinking about opportunities to use this technique......

My blips aren't quite up to date yet but I really wanted to post this one today........it feels a little bit special.
