f/3.2, 8 seconds, ISO64, built-in flash, tripod.
Original night image of a bare tree (which I thought had an interesting form) in my bank's parking lot.
I didn't expect to capture much, since my flash couldn't reach that far.

Final image after manipulations. I wanted to explore duotone/sepia settings, and this was my first project.

  The original image, shot in low light, highlights the interesting shape of the tree, while the final edited version shows the artist's exploration of two-tone and sepia effects. ="://domain"key5
