This is terrific Nat and so inviting. Just makes one want to hike down that path and see the beauty of fall all around. Excellent composition, clarity and colors. What a treasure. Thanks for this one.

What a peaceful image, Nat ... that path is asking to be taken! I hope you'll post the mineral well? Very nice image!

So Beautiful,and Peaceful Scene..Superb shot in all aspects..Well done

Wonderful image Nat! It lets me imagine where the road leads and what an interesting road it is too! Warm autumn color and a perfect composition. Well done, my dear!

Such a nice Fall picture Nat. You have great places to venture through such as this and your Crossroads picture.

I too am impressed by the soft warm glow in the atmosphere. I can't get over the wonderful depth of field you've captured here. It seems that you can see the path go on and on forever. It's such an inviting place, as has been said, and bears repeating. I am also enjoying the way you've chosen to frame this on the left with the soft yellow of the autumnal tree and the one behind it that looks as if it just might change into an orange or perhaps even a red. I can also tell because of the clarity you've achieved, that this path has been trodden on by many feet as it is worn down to the point that we'd have to be careful not to trip on the roots that have been exposed by all the people who have enjoyed this particular hike. You say there is a mineral well at the end? I'd love to see it, as I'm sure it is as well composed as this shot has been. :)PJ

Nat, this is great with the different colors and textures in the trees. That path looks well trodden so many must come to this place for it's beauty which you have captured quite well.
