Beech Wood


by Alan Leightley


Sony Alpha 7R II, 165mm,
1/6sec at f/11, ISO 50


Alan is a joiner and an enthusiastic
hobby photographer. He is based in
Seahouses, Northumberland, and shot
this at his local beech wood, which he
says was during ‘a gorgeous misty
morning with
the morning sun
penetrating through
the canopy.’
When he can, he loves
to get outdoors with
his camera. You can
see more of his work
on his website http://www.
