Description
I captured this image of a maple tree in the brilliant but soft light of a late fall afternoon. I knew that the contrast between the limbs, leaves, and granite wall might create an interesting composition … but could I capture it? Looking through my viewfinder, I experimented with different framing, focal points, and depth of field. Finally, after much fiddling, the image suddenly resolved in my viewfinder and I snapped the shutter. The sensation I felt was equivalent to that of the safecracker who is listening to the tumblers of a safe; he finally hears the last loud click and knows he has cracked the safe open. That’s what I felt when I saw the image in my viewfinder and made the exposure.
