A few weeks back, we stayed in room #6 next to the old, well manicured cypress tree at the far end of this little scene. Though the original shot was well exposed, I couldn’t resist tweaking it a bit with Photoshop and Nik Silver Efex Pro (version 1). Layering the original shot over a black and white conversion produces an interesting faux HDR effect.

Lens: Canon EF-S 15-85mm at 24mm. 1/30 second at f/16, ISO 200.
