This is certainly one of the more extraordinary trees that I saw on my visit to Dartmoor this week. But there were many more. It has, however, been the one that has really stuck in my mind and I have been trying to work out why.

Long story short, none of the images was especially satisfying, but I did have all the components of a decent shot. I decided, therefore, to combine a wide angle sky with a longer focal length shot of the foreground and the monument itself. I then proceeded to remove the various additional artefacts to create what, for me at least, looked like a pleasing result.
