I love the way the shadow shape is so similar to the trees curves bringing your eye into the middle.

Thanks for the comment, really appreciate it.
 
So, for my 'Showcase' image i'm uploading this one. This probably isn't the 'best' image I made this year but it has just become my favourite as it has been ublished in a Fly Fishing magazine (Fly Culture), whch i'm really pleased about.




And here it is, in the magazine, it sits as the third image featured

 
Abstract: The light and shade really bring out the texture of the tree bark.
Showcase: That's just a beautiful shot Jim. The light and the mist are lovely as are the reflections. Congratulations too on getting it into the magazine. Looks great as a double page spread.
 
Abstract
Lovely light and shade, good tone's too.

Showcase
Good landscape, it's the group of tree's on the left side, that catch my eye. Nice and moody.
 
A nice misty day by a river, what's not to like?
And congrats on being published (y)

So that's the final image from me for this 52, i'll see you all next year. Merry Christmas to everyone and I wish you a safe and restful new year.

Thanks Tim, hopefully we can have a bit more of a 'normal' time not too long into next year.
 
Nicely done decorating :)
 
His own tree to decorate - definitely spoiled (appropriately - it is Christmas after all!!)

Congrats on making it through!

There's a lovely feel to the colours and atmosphere in your final shot - almost a glow.

Well done on completing the 52.

Edit: I've just spotted your showcase shot - congratulations on getting published. It is a very lovely shot.
