The Trail of Trees

This photo was taken on a summer trip to the Santa Cruz Mountains. We were going on a hike when we came upon these almost perfectly symmetrical trees.

Composition:

Perspective was the key thing I focused on while taking this photo. Holding the camera at a lower angle allows the trees to look even longer and taller than they actually are, which adds dramatic effect. The other key of this photo is the importance of the line of sight. The barks of the trees on both sides create a trail.
