I wanted to show the soft and vulnerable human skin against the gnarly bark of a tree and found this amazing pine in a little grove nearby.

This is to illustrate that as I touch the tree, I also feel touched by it. The gusts of wind were a nice addon.

Challenge:
To work with what little light was left in the rapidly changing conditions of a passing thunderstorm.

Sound:
Sigur Rós – Starálfur

Lesson:
Light is everything.
