Great photograph
GerryMac replied

Ralph Olsson
I’ve mentioned how good this is before, i know. But i reckon for me this is one of my faves. Love that you used light to create a sheen over the root system. It creates hills of light and hollows of darkness and contrasts well mate:)
GerryMac replied
Thanks Ralph, this is an amazing park as there are a number of these and the span of the leave coverage is huge that it is always seem dark underneath with patches of light that break through here and there. I imagine that the look and texture of the tunk and roots would be similar to the hide of a dinosaur..lol! cheers mate!
Danica Radman ...
