The resize has partially killed the roundness effect given by the beautiful lens and the medium format DOF.

Orio, this is an example of how pleasant a medium format photo can be to look at.
What I find most fascinating is that the grey tones are pretty close and still easily distinguishable - and you have details in the sky! Excellently exposed!
Well done, my friend! _________________ Personal forum activity on pause every now and again (due to job obligations)!

What's the big tree on the right, a fir? The conifer in the middle looks
like a pine and the narrow conical ones on the left haven't got a clue.
Nice mix of conifer and deciduous trees.

On the right you have a mix of Norway Spruces (Picea abies) and Silver Fir (Abies alba), the one visible in front is indeed a Silver Fir, so you guessed right, although it's an European tree never found in America (it's close to extinction here too due to heavy deforestation) so you are probably not used to it.
I have to check the lower broadleaves (not sure about them), behind the broadleaves there is another conifer that I also have to check (I seem to remember a Yew there, but the leaves are too light colored for a Yew), and in the far background you have some Black Pines (Pinus nigra).
On the left the long slender trees are Italian Cypresses (Cupressus sempervirens), which are a landmark of Central Italy, while here in the north they are less planted because of colder winters.
On the far left, you can glimpse some branches of an American tree, the Bald Cypress (Taxodium distichum). _________________ Orio, Administrator

Yes, I've seen those narrow cypress trees in movies, like "Gladiator"
etc. Nice tree! So the middle tree (2nd from right) is a spruce, not pine.
A nice dwarf spruce we grow in the PNW is the Alberta, or Albertina
spruce, cute tree.

If you mean the one that looks bigger in the photo, it's a fir, like you guessed right first - a beautiful exemplar of Silver Fir.
There's also spruces in that part of the park but hidden in the photo. _________________ Orio, Administrator

I was pretty sure the big one on the right was a fir, but the one in the
back, just left of center is the spruce? That's the one I thought might be
a pine.

That one, and the other ones that you can just guess behind it, are Black Pines, yes. _________________ Orio, Administrator
