Another green shot - HDR in the forest

Cork tree
Cork tree in La Plaine des Maures


The bad weather of the previous months seriously disturbed my work and put me in a real hurry. So i had to work all the week end and even on May first which is the biggest non working day here.

Yesterday evening i needed to breath a little fresh air. I took my camera and drove to a place where there are red rocks on the ground, wild lavender and some little streams and ponds. I arrived a little before the good light and decided to explore a little bit the cork tree forest just near. Although it was a little walk to wait for the light i took the four exposures used in this image thinking it would give me the occasion to practice tone mapping a little more.
10 minutes later it was raining again :)

You can tell it's been raining a lot.. everything looks super-green and lush. I like the slightly skewed angle of view and I can't even see that you used tone mapping on this... looks totally natural. And now I know that cork trees are a type of oak:)

Thank's Mark,

Yes, all this green in May is unusual here and for me it's just like an every day surprise.
