Now, the warm light of the sun pours over the frozen tree, whose distal branches are still covered by a thin layer of ice, after the cold last night. The thick branches, instead, have been warmed enough to allow the melting of the white crust of ice wrapped on them, regaining the natural color. The blue background of the sky completes, in a pleasant manner, the image.
The image was taken using a Nikon D40X camera with Nikon 55-200mm VR AF-S f/4-5.6G ED lens and these settings: exposure time – 1/320 seconds, focal length – 90mm, ISO – 400, F- number – 5.6.
