This photo was taken in the park near my home. The day before we had a lot of snow. For Holland at least. The next day I went to out to the park to make photo’s of the snow. The photo here is my favorite one. The sun was low and casting nice long shadows. When I walk around I not only look in front of me. But also up, down and back. And very often you find interesting scenes. The same with this one photo. The scene in front of me was boring. So I looked back and saw this scene. I moved around to find the best position where I could hide the sun as much as possible behind the tree.

In post processing I did not do very much. Just lowered the highlights a bit, increased the shadows, contrast and clarity. After that applied sharpening and a little vignette.
