Thanks guys. I have a shot further back that doesn’t work as well so I decided to move closer to that cut log to use as an anchor. Over the years I’ve found that you need one in a trail shot - whether it’s something like a root or rock in the trail, or an element just outside it, they’re important to provide a through-line into the scene.
Glad you like the little tree @David_Haynes - I noticed it while standing there and hoped it wouldn’t get lost.
