Darren, crop that bright area in the middle top out and then send me a copy! This one is great!

Great image, reminds me a bit of Sleepy Hollow given the season

I love this Darren! Your images seem to just get better and better with each post. I agree with Mark the middle white area in the upper part must go...but I think you will lose a lot of the shot if you crop it...
Hey, Darren,
Congratulations on getting the EP for your "Liquid Gold" image. Looking at this one makes me think you're on to a GOLD theme.
Like this a lot. I particularly favor it when the top is cropped down to just let the arching green branches/leaves show. And I am envious that you get out so far and wide for photography. That's great. Hope you get your hike in this weekend.

I love this state! That's Magic Light, there! Doesn't look like your trip was a complete bust. It's beautiful! Looking at it, I can imagine a stray leaf falling here and there...

What everyone said. I love the way the forest behind the roadside rank of trees shines through. Another image I'd frame. If I had infinite money and infinite wall space to cover, I'd have a high old time shopping at this site.

Hey Darren, I was just looking at this shot and my wife walked into my office and said "Wow! That shot's great! Wonderful"! (she agreed with my crop suggestion also)

I also agree, Its a great shot. The wet roadway is a must for this to work.

Thanks Everyone.....it was pouring down rain and the wind was blowing...I just covered my lens for a sec and hopped out of the car and took the shot and hopped back in....leaves were blowing all over the place and had it been dry I would have did a long exposure of the leaves falling......anyway...here is the image with the crop suggestions....let me know what you think.....thanks again for the nice words...much appreciated....
