Detail on a eucalypt. St Ives village green, NSW, Australia.
It is late afternoon & the sun is comming in from the right.
The low curving shadows are created by the semicircles of the bark sticking up.

Nice photo.

Great eye for something special and beautiful. I wonder whether a much tighter crop, even into the shadows of the pieces a bit, and certainly on the top to make the shadow casting pieces and their shadows the center of interest might help. A little graduated shading of the dark on the right piece of bark would also raise the clarity and dynamics, if that's what you're after.

Thanks very much, Bob.
I will keep your analysis in mind if I revist this image.
