My Top 10 Photos of 2017 - Number 3

On this first day of the New Year I'm sharing my top 3 pics of 2017, and at number 3 is 'The old pathway' - a monochrome image captured in the grounds of Springhill House, Moneymore. The sun was low in the sky, so the light was perfect to bring out the jagged outline of the holly leaves. Zooming in with a moderate aperture setting ensured the holly stood out against the out-of-focus background.

Although the original image was colour, I felt a vintage black and white effect worked better. This was added via Lightroom. (Camera: Fujifilm X-T1. Lens: XF 18-55mm f/2.8-4 R LM OIS. Settings: f/5.6 1/160s ISO200)
