There is a spruce tree named a Christmas tree in Biei, Hokkaido. Even in the harsh winter of Hokkaido, a tree stands on a snowy field. The sunlight illuminates the tree and creates a beautiful shadow.
The moment when the snowstorm changes to sunny is beautiful.
Take continuous bracket shots by hand and prepare 3 images with different exposures for HDR composition. A high-pass filter is used to obtain the texture of snow. Dodge & Burn is used for highlight shadows.
Thank you so much!
The texture in the snow is insane. Great play of light and shadow. I really looks bizzare, because there's no snow on the tree.
Thank you very much!
Thanks for explaining your technique and workflow.
Thanks a lot! Ed:)

Absolutely splendid! I don't know what it is about lone trees in fields, but I have always loved them.
Thank you so much!!
Time to remember.Well done!
Many thanks!
I liked it until I noticed the tree looked like a plastic Christmas tree
I like this artistic expression. I want to make a work that has pros and cons rather than what everyone likes. Thank you for your valuable opinion.
Your welcome. The tranquil mood that your photos elicit is on another level. Well done!!
Gorgeous.
