Black and White Photography

Winter Tree

One of my favorite things is winter trees. I love being able to see their branches and the texture. I shot this in upstate NY on the banks of the West Branch of the Delaware River River. I converted to black and white using Topaz software to eliminate all distractions which I think helps to focus on the form and the detail.
