Day 300: Barking Up the Wrong Tree

Or maybe the right tree. Who knows? But can you believe this is day 300! And save for yesterday and one other day, I've actually taken at least one photo every single day this year. Just heading into the home stretch now.

I took this one of a tree, with some of its former leaves on the ground behind it. I really like how it came out, particularly how just one strip of the bark is in focus.

1/40 sec. exposure at F/5.6. ISO 100.

And here's one with the focus flipped, just so you can see what's on the ground.
