I'm mainly looking for the light, trying to compose and frame my composition based on how the light hit my subject or the scene.
To see how the light bring out the 3D form of the tree are so rewarding. Those tiny shadowed areas make the tree really stand out from the background.

I’m always on the look out for some small pieces of colour I can incorporate into my composition. Right now my local woodland are very green, but together with the light, the shadows and the small amount of red and orange in the Pine trees it's still possible to frame up a composition.
