Now you succeeded, Pierre, in making me totally confused. I simply do not know which one I prefer. Maybe the darker one after all ... But this one is special, too ...

I hold it true that thoughts are things; They're endowed with bodies, breath and wings: And that we send them forth to fill the world with good results, or ill. That which we call our secret thought speeds forth to earth's remotest spot, leaving it's blessings or it's woes like tracks behind it as it goes. We build our future, thought by thought for good or for ill, yet know it not. Yet so the universe was wrought . Thought is another name for fate. Choose then thy destiny and wait, for Love brings Love and Hate brings Hate. - Henry Van Dyke.

I'll chip in a dollar if you go to other extremely wet locales ... be sure to pack the wrong clothes ... because angst and sufferage are what makes good art what it is

and, therefore, you must have been suffering plenty when you took this ... coz, this is great

Thanks

Well I will state my preference. They are all beautiful, but this one stands out for me. I think that the challenge often in forest shots is to avoid dark shadows and extreme highlights and allow us to see all the different spaces. This does this perfectly and the light in the mist reminds us of the sky above, without bleaching part of the photo. The only thing that I would like to see is the extra 200 pixels that are cropped to make it 1600 x 1200. Great Pierre!
