I spotted this group of trees on my way to the gym this morning and it struck me as a perfect candidate for a stark black and white conversion. As usual I’d thrown my camera in the boot of the car so I jumped out and grabbed a few shots, working quickly so my camera didn’t get completely soaked in the drizzling rain.
