Nice capture, the sun rays are beautiful here. I do find the rays just maybe a tad bit too harsh, but still a beautiful shot!

What a shot. You would not believe how many times i have tried to do this kind of thing and failed misrably. I always get the light over exposed or the trees under exposed. If you have any suggestions on how you did it i would love to hear them.

Anyways i also like to say what i don't like about pictures, even when they are great, so now i will do that:P.

Something in the composition seems to be off alittle i think. Perhaps moving the sun away from the centre could make that better, but im not really sure if that is it or not. But anyways, nice work on this one, ill have to keep an eye open for you in the future.

Okay...I'm studying this...oh, and Welcome to Caedes :) ...it looks like you "set" the light into this picture. I can't get over how you've maintained the integrity of the rest of the colors in the pic and yet were able to incorporate that much sunshine. You've got us all mystified it seems. I'm looking forward to seeing more of your work :)PJ

Superior work! All the technical elements are well established in your photo and it's very moody and pleasing! - Patty (TYU)
