Think about the photo before and after, never during. The secret is to take your time. You mustn't go too fast. The subject must forget about you. Then, however, you must be very quick.
Henri Cartier-Bresson
Congratulations on a magnificent shot. I love everything about this photo, the silhouetting, the glowing mist, the clear sky, the backlit leaves, the reddish tones, the tree's shadow expanding toward the foreground. All excellent.
