A Flowering Tree Portrait

Weeping Cherry Tree
University of Montana Arboretum, Missoula


Once you've recorded an image of your subject in its environment, move in closer to create a portrait. Just like photographing a person, isolate the flowering tree against a simple background so it fills the frame and provides your viewer with the experience of walking closer to the tree itself.
