[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
I did a bit of a Spielberg here and left the pedestrian's coat it's original colour before the BW conversion ("Schindlers List"). I feel it brings attention to her which in turn exaggerates the natural scale of the tree. If you look closely (which I hope you do - another reason for leaving her coat red) you will see that she is holding a white cane which means she is blind and thus perhaps oblvious to the size of the tree she is walking past.

Anyway, just a moment.

Thanks for looking,

TW

Hi Tim
This was a great moment indeed. Very well done and well seen. I always think this type of shot and PP makes for a strong image.
