Treetop in Winter Sunset (Lightroom Edit)

This photograph dates from February, 2012. It was one of those 'let's see what happens' efforts which worked out better than anticipated. I used a Nikon D90 with an AF Zoom-Nikkor 70-300mm f/4-5.6G lens at full stretch (not a setting where it excels: it's performance is usually poor beyond 200mm). Aperture was f/7.1; speed 1/3200. Elsewhere I have remarked on how difficult it is to repeat a photograph due to factors like different light, forgotten camera settings, mistaken perspective; in this case it is impossible because the tree has been felled. I doubt the picture would be half as attractive without the spindly twigs silhouetted in the winter sunset.
