In the Mood for Trees

I love photographing trees and then working some magic on them with textures.  Both trees were photographed with the Fuji x100s.  Processing Photoshop CC, Nik Color Efex Pro 4 and Vivezia 2.  The tree above was photographed at Tod’s Point in Old Greenwich.  Textures are by Dirk Wuestenhagen and Distressedtextures.  I really wanted the play of light and dark to give it that really moody feeling.

The image below was photographed at Rockefeller Preserve in Pocantico Hills, New York.  Textures are by Dirk Wuestenhagen, Distressedtextures and Shadowhouse Creations.  The mood is lighter with this one because I wanted the tree branches to be more prominent.  Two different trees, two different moods.
