Yes, I got better shots when not trying to also show the Tree of Life. It was a good day.

Good sky color especially to the right. Realistic anyway.

Next time bring a tripod and you can lengthen your shutter speed to allow in more light and lift the shadows.

Oh LOL, I have my 20 year old Manfrotto 3021Pro that I use.

Right after this shot I moved closer and did some bracketed exposures, to make HDR. The HDR just doesn't look right, this natural dark look is better.

Sunrise was happening and the light was changing. I had other views to photograph too. ;) The Tree of Life is cool, but not the best picture I got that day.

Mistakes were made. Those are my footsteps.

I could have moved back some and gotten more sky reflection in the water...then the tree would have been smaller. I did more shots from up closer that show the tree better.

I can edit it to be brighter, but it looks fake. The hole under the tree is just dark, especially at this time of day.
