Enchanting forest

An evening walk through the pine forest down from Ladrigg towards Keswick. The sunlight just seem to stream through foliage and lighting up the forest as if some one has turned on the electricity.

D90 18-200mm@34 F8 1/8sec HH. Thanks for stopping by and C&C appreciated. PP with CS5 with TK lum masks.

These scenes are real tough to pull off. I think your getting close here, but something still feels a bit off and im not quite sure what it is--mid section feels a bit soft so even with the battle against compression i think maybe some work on the sharpening might help, plus i might crop a bit from top and bottom to tighten this up a bit--the contrast up top with the bright light coming through is pretty harsh, but in a large scale image it might not be so bad. Pretty scene tho :smile:

I like it. It is a very unusual looking scene and the light works very well here. I like the composition too. Stan has spotted some issues I can agree with, but I really like it as is.
