I wish I was a Glow Worm, a Glow Worm's never glum, 'cause how can you be grumpy, when the sun shines out your bum?
This looks nice a�lso in b/w because of all the different shades of grey here. Good one for the challenge .

Smooth seas do not make skilful sailors.
Makes a great B&W with those roiling skies and as Lyn said a wonderful array of textures.

. . . Earth laughs in flowers! Ralph Waldo Emerson
This looks a bit gritty. I like what the harsh tones convey.

Long before the white man and long before the wheel, when the dark green forests were too silent to be real. Lightfoot 1967
Like the nutwad I am, I took the liberty of downloading your photo and viewing it at 300% zoom. The trees in the background look great and most of the rest of the shot is well focused. However, when I zoomed in on the pathway on the right, I noticed that many of the stones and weeds are duplicated. Since I don't understand the process, I'm assuming that something moved a pinch somewhere along the line. I admire your creativity.

Dorothy Michaels: No, just Dorothy. Alan's always Alan, Tom's always Tom and John's always John. I have a name too. It's Dorothy, capital D-O-R-O-T-H-Y.
Loving that sky Sandi. Nice edit.

Life's moments are sweet. I just want to capture all that I can of them.
This is really lovely Sandi. You just don't see open, wooded land like this where I live, it's become extinct here. And the Depression-era work of Dorothea Lange has been on my mind lately. Partly because someone has been pushing her work, and also because she's just really good. This tableau kind of gives me that vibe, minus all the human misery of the Dustbowl years. Just an anonymous siding somewhere in rural America, back before we sacrificed the land to roads & cars. Also, I really like the tonality of your clouds, they're a perfect blend of light & shadow and give the scene a wild, primal atmosphere, like just before a storm. And I assume the misalignments are due to the wind, and not being handheld. That said, this technique would work well for city photography too. Give us more.

There are more things in heaven and earth,

Sandi, I've read all the comments above, so I've noticed the misalignment (Russ' comment) and the duplicating of the stones and weeds on the pathway on the right (Dorothy's comment).
They are right, but to me your image hasn't lost its charm. Your Photomatix Pro editing has added a dreamy look however and has enhanced its painterly, and moody character, even in B&W.
Good entry for for the Wednesday B&W challenge, my friend.

So much drama in the sky...I never imagined a basic woodland scene would look so good!
