This tree broke in half during hurricane Sandy.

Canon 350D modified for infrared, EF 28-105 f/3.5 MkII with 720nm filter, manual exposure, custom white balance. No processing except conversion from RAW to jpeg with ufRAW.
 
Very nice, I wish I could find isolated ones like that but around here you can't see the trees for the forest. :)
 
'Withered Dreams.' I just shot this closeup of a dead tree in my backyard from out my window a few hours ago.

Sony Cybershot DSC-H300 in Night Scene mode.

Here is my entry for the month. I left at 3:00 AM and drove for over an hour to reach this location. The temperature was -1º F and the wind was blowing about 15mph so it was really cold and my fingers kept going numb when working the camera. The final image is 7 vertical images that are stitched together to create a pano. 20mm f/1.8 lens at f/2.2, 13 sec, ISO 4000.

I cant believe I've missed another month! I REALLY need to get out of this overtime world and enjoy myself if even just a little bit!

Anyway, #3 gets it for me this month, Very Nice!
 
Looks like I missed the deadline too. The weather and my free time just never quite lined up, oh well lots of great shots to choose from anyway. Great entries everyone!

After much consideration my vote goes to Ninja Post #6
 
I have a thing for single trees, so I love all the entries :001_smile

My favourite is whitebar's pano (love those too :wink:) - post #16
