Westmoreland Trees-Westmoreland, NH

I recently received some criticism from a highly respected artist and photographer for not correcting the lens distortion in this image. However, I respectfully disagree.  If this were an image of an architectural structure that would have been a very valid criticism. Aside from the fact that much of the image would have been cropped away by that correction, it totally would have ruined the impact of the image. In my humble opinion, this view seen from about 30 feet below the bottom of these trees on a hill seems to exalt them and embrace the viewer.
My point is this: TRUST YOUR OWN INSTINCTS AND ARTISTIC VISION!!!
Be sure to click on the image to get the full impact of the details in this image.
