From one of my favourite local to explore, this image of a Maple Vine tree reaching for the light is one of my favourites.

To get the compression I wanted I had to stitch about 9 frames together to get the full image in one shot. Moving closer would mean a large blue sky or the gravel trail beneath the tree would be visible. But, I'm happy with the result :) I titled it "Reach" given the trees aggressive lean.
