Description

another x-mas tree shot...i know... again :o)

This one made a lot of work but it worth it !!
I'll try to explain how the shot was made.I started the shot at the bottom of the tree and moved upwards in zig-zag. At every zig-zag stop I moved the zoom a little bit and turned completely the focus ring than move again the zoom and the focus-ring in the other direction...repeating those steps until the zoom was completely turned in one direction than zig zagged upwards and started the same procedure again and this during 242 seconds. Sorry my technical english is not the best I hope you understand it :o)

Fixed levels and little saturation in PSE3.

O.S.- 242s - f/22 - iso 100 - with sigma dc 18-50 - on tripod
