Golden Tamarack

















Here is another image from our evening walk at Big Bog State Recreation Area.  The lighting we had that evening was spectacular.  Everything was golden orange, accented not only by the seasonal color but also by the warm evening light.  This photo was made with my Tamron 150-600 lens at 375mm.  An aperture of f/8 gave me a shallow enough depth of field to give this scene the look I was going for.  Behind the tree was all this tall grass that was swaying in the breeze and the tips of the grasses were catching the evening light.  The narrow aperture turned those point of light into circles, which I thought really made for an eye-catching image.  I shot a video of this scene as well, and it is mesmerizing :-)
