Don't Give Up!

            I have revisited this local spot on many occasions and tried and tried to find a composition I was happy with. I always came away with photos but up to now had never processed one. The background was always messy, I was too close and sometimes you just need to keep going back and going back if your gut tells you there is an image to be had. I think the mist simplified things, it gave me that clear background then I had a bit of a moment of just thinking... put the tree right in the centre and just see how it goes! I hope you like it... after working the place for a year or so now I think this is prob the best of it! 

I was tempted to inpatient out the random bit of farm machinery... but I've decided that in itself helps to balance the shot out. Your thoughts?
