I like the idea - a lot. I think the photo would have had more impact if you had stepped into the trees and shot from the dark into the light. The bright spot on the ground draws your eyes down and away from the tree tunnel. You might crop it a bit to get the same effect. I really like the idea, exposure is good, nice DOF - good shot.
Very nice photo and the colours are great plus nice composition too.The only problem is the light at the fount is a bit to bright but still a very nice job.
I really enjoy the orange/bronze hues in this photograph. My screen cuts off the bright light at the bottom of the photo, and I think it looks great. Maybe you could edit it out in the actual photo?
