We had been out for a walk in the hills in an area which was new to us. As we came down off the rough track we saw this unoccupied but beautifully maintained cottage through the tunnel formed by the trees. What caught my eye was the contrast between the snowy whiteness of the cottage walls and the darkness of the approach. I tried it first with the 18/55 lens but was very dissatisfied with the result so went back next day with the 55/250 lens and was lucky to have the same lighting conditions.
What I wonder is, should I have got more detail in the dark tree trunks and foliage? If so, how could I have achieved this without losing the contrast which had first attracted me?
