Thank you. The tripod was quite low, and, I was thinking of depth-of-field. The original image was much higher in quality, but I had to reduce its size considerably.
Man! The Brand-New D5? How does it feel? And a totally unknown (to me!) Zeiss-lens to go with it...you are one lucky guy! get to try all the latest stuff.
Congrats, Jorge.

Walter, the D5 is big and heavy. I still can't decide if its for me or not. The Zeiss glass is about as heavy as the camera :) Today I purchased an inexpensive 50mm 1.8 that weighs as much as a bottle cap and I am very impressed.
Thank you. Notice there is a wire running up the tree? I went around the tree but none of the other sides looked right at the top. Glad you liked this.
Thank you. In Singapore, trees are planned, mostly used to line roads. They tend to be linear. A "forest" may be found in parks. Not the huge ones you see in Europe; just a few. So, I have to find an angle to make it look more like, well, a "forest". Make do.
This is an "unnatural" nature shot. I am glad you liked it. The little climb into the forest has been heavily used. There is a construction site nearby, with at least 60 foreign workers. Recently the police discovered a prostitution den in the forest. Might explain the foot-path's heavy usage.
