Finally got round to sorting some (well, one anyway) of my recent Scarborough shots. This one is from the Dean Road and Manor Road Cemetery (originally one cemetery but acknowledged now as two distinct areas). Constructed in a valley, it links to a lovely walk down to the beach at the North Bay from my parents place and has some wonderful nooks and crannies, secret hollows and fern gullies like this one. I couldn't find any 'resident' of fame or notoriety but the list of tree species was quite impressive - Japanese cedar, western hemlock, coast redwood, monkey puzzle, giant redwood, Austrian pine, wych elm, purple myrobalan plum, ristate beech (possibly the tallest in Yorkshire at 20.5 metres (67ft)), Deodar cedar, Tree of Heaven and Highclere holly.

Iso 400, f16, 1/20sec, 17mm, tripod and remote release. Cropped, levels adjusted (CS5), and sharpened a tad.

Gorgeous! Natural light in all its beauty, plus I suspect some careful processing to achieve that evenness of detail. We were out yesterday aiming for this sort of effect, my results were rubbish...

The back lighting is allowing the fern to stand out as a f/g feature very nicely, Dave, and is showing off the colours in the autumn leaves above.

It's a very well controlled exposure Dave, virtually no burn out and that's a very impressive dynamic range for a single image. Like Ronnie, I like the lighting on the fern. The PoV felt quite subterranean and then when I read it was in a graveyard... feels more like a newborn zombie's eye view! The ivy leads your eye up the tree very effectively.
