I couldnt think of a title for this one apart from Adorned. The old stone wall ( yep it really is a wall) is adorned by the tree, which is adorned by some kind of vine. I am actually hoping to get some advice on this shot if you dont mind. In the original shot, to the right of the tree, the sun caused a huge glare on the grass behind it, so I have tried to clone it out but not sure I have pulled it off. There was no way to avoid the glare that I could find, so I wondered how you all deal with glare.

Thank you so much for any advice in advance.

Really a unique looking tree, sure would be a great climbing one. Wonderful clarity, detail and colours

This is a very interesting capture Jo, both the tree and the wall have a lot of character!

There was a tree by a wall in Shawshank Redemption where Andy left some money for Red. I think this is it. One of my favorite movies so I love this shot Jo.

That is one cool old Oak? I'm sure he knows Treebeard.

Nice picture.

You did a good job Jo. Actually, I think it is more difficult to clone than to airbrush out the glare, but it always seems to be on an individual basis - one may work better on some shots than the other. I like the greens in contrast to the browns in the tree and rock wall. It is a lovely shot.

Love this shot of Nature taking over when left to its own devices. If you'd not mentioned the cloning I wouldn't have noticed and even when I did it seems pretty good. Would it have been possible to move round to the right a bit? That way you'd still see the wall, the tree and the vine but wouldn't have been looking directly at the grass.
