The trees are so clear and interesting shapes that they look like dancers. I think you almost caught them in act. What a beautiful scene with outstanding light and color. Everything is so perfect it's as if the forest is posing for you. Great capture Paul.
Really an astounding "portrait". The colors and lighting are incredible. I have a new Dell 24" flat panel display and I'm running 1920 x 1200 resolution. I tell ya, viewing this shot is actually like being in the forest.
"I never looked for it, gave it no name; yet I knew it always, when the gift of peace came. I stood quite still for the moment that it lasted...Then the light shifted slightly and the moment passed, leaving me...with the lasting echo of its presence.." Diana Gabaldon
Looks like my kind of place. Lots of fallen leaves to soften the pathway and wonderful sunlight streaming in to light the way. Beautiful shot of a beautiful place.
You will be led to the knowledge of the internal things which are invisible to you, by the external things which you see before you. . . . Even so then, we can represent to ourselves in thought the Author of all that is, by contemplating and admiring the (visible) things which He has made, and ever brings into being.
