Lens Voigtlander 35 f/1.7
Aperture: f/2
Filters: none
Short note on PP: Just some minor exposure adjustments and a bit of curves
Top vote (3p) Adaptedlenses: I love the loneliness and tone of this shot. I am a sucker for solo isolated trees and this is one of the best of those types of shots I have seen.
Runner-up vote (2p): GabrielPhoto: I am a huge fan of your portrait work and in this one I love the expression you have captured.
Last vote (1p): Ulff: Love the frivolity of the scene with the cubs playing. A lovely moment captured.
