Picked up my camera for the first time in half a year

Missed all of you! My vision is still and will remain diminished. Yet. I got to go on a short trip to Savannah, took my camera, and in the deep woods around an old plantation got this shot.
Hope you like it.

but your vison is perfect and this image is lovely in composition and tonality.

Most people go a lifetime and not see what you have shown here.

May I ask what camera you used. Beautiful and incredibly REAL. One can almost reach and touch your subject.

BEST OF luck to you Mira.

I am a rank amateur, I use it like a point-and-shoot. My claim to some good photos is (was) a good eye for composition, and some adjustments when editing them. Thank you so much for liking the photo.

I have an old Nikon and use it pointing and shooting. Thank Goodness for digital. I can shoot 50 pictures hoping for 2 Good ones and be happy with that. Loved the photo. And Love You Dear. Good Health and happy clicking.
