Prune for vigour

My property backs onto an avocado orchard and every now and then the trees get a rather heavy prune. This shot taken through the wire fence at the bottom of the garden with the XF14, cropped to 16:9 and processed in Silver Effex Pro.

I like. Quite eerie.
For a moment though I thought the topic was dietary advice. :shock:

Totally creepy but fantastic. The combination of the pruned trees and the sky in glorious black and white makes for a large size print for the wall in the den.

It is a very dramatic landscape; it's almost poetic with an overcast sky as if the land had its hands and fingers to the sky asking for a lifesaving drink of water. I like it and I feel it will look even better in a large print.

Interesting and yes, creepy. In a nice way.

Thanks for the feedback, I am not entirely happy with the end result because of the haloing on some of the limbs against the sky. Will need to reprocess to try and eliminate it.
