But words are things, and a small drop of ink, falling, like dew, upon a thought produces that which makes thousands, perhaps millions think and smile.
Art is everywhere, except it has to pass through a creative mind.
I love the dappled sunlight on the path and greens, but I find the treatment you've used a little distracting. Like I need a sharper pair of glasses. Impressionistic stlye has always been a favorite, but I find myself wanting a clearer view of where this path leads.
The effect you've used looks out of place on some images like this. But I think you've got it just right. The shadows are awesome and the path makes a great focal point. However, being a wallpaper and all, I would have liked the darker side of the image to be on the left hand side instead of the left, so that my icons don't cover the nice bright bit. I'll switch it anyway...
Really great shot; by the way Jojo, you're a rolemodel to me in photography. I love every shot you've taken, and i'd just like to say you're incredibly talented.
Can you explain what effeect you applied to this image?

splendid! the lighting, the colours and the warmth they give to the picture;-) plus the I-don't-know-how-to-do effect that adds a sort of dream-like touch;-) congratulations!
