Hi ya'll! Newbie to this site, specializing in landscapes and critters from Lake Martin / Cypress Island Preserve, in Louisiana.

This was shot at dawn, 16 Mar 2013 at 0744 with a Panasonic Lumix FZ20, f/ 3.3, 1/1000sec, 16mm. Added text and border from Picasa. Slight HDR effect added, no color enhancement. [img:center]http://www.viewbug.com/photo/15328941[/img]

Nice capture. The tree almost looks like a monster.

Thank you, Roger! We call that the most famous tree at at the lake, because its the first one everybody sees, and then it sits out there by itself sort of majestically.
