Just a tree

Simple unpretentious snap of a tree in the snow, hand-held with the built-in flash. Although I'd like to believe I'm becoming a more capable and discerning photographer I remain quite wedded to the "AUTO" mode on my Nikon. I do now appreciate f-stops and aperture priority etc. but it's amazing what can be done hand-held with the ISO pushed up high. I keep hoping to get a really spine-tingling shot in the dark city streets, or a moving picture of Canterbury Cathedral, or perhaps a candid portrait of a beautifully wrinkled old face. Today this will have to do. Enjoy.
