BuzzNL Friend Registered: January 2021 Location: The Netherlands Posts: 146	Taken in the forest on my way to work, someone has made this wooden swing in this tree for the kids to enjoy. Shot on AgfaPhoto APX400 with my OM-1 and Zuiko 85-250mm f/5 lens. This was my first print (well, second copy :D) on Fomabrom Variant 112 true matt paper. A stunning paper with an amazing range of tones!

Hi Sebstiaan,
Something magical with the tree so well placed against the light background. Also ideal depth of field. Recommend everyone the zoom-in to cherish the nice texture of the tree.
Best, Frank

I can only agree with Frank and add about the very nice out of focus 'oof' branches in the foreground. Bravo!

Thank you both!
I must admit I was really happy with how this print just seemed to work.
One of my personal favorites of the year so far.

There was a little haze in the air that day, helping a lot in making the background a little lighter.
And the Zuiko telezoom is simply brilliant. Even wide open it's already plenty sharp.
