I could swear I seen a little girl in a red hooded cape right before I took this!
I found myself drawn to a few places right as the sun was going down which helped tone this shot down a bit. The middle of the day this spot was rather blah. Luckily the wind subsided right around sunset which helped get the 6 sec. exposure off. It has even been desaturated 10% and still has plenty of color.
Gotta run I think a wolf is coming!

Beautiful Brad! Colors look great and the road really draws your eye in and I like the little bit of red at the end of the path.

Brad, that is some of the best color I have seen all season. Your exposure and saturation is perfect.

I like the mood of this... deep, dark woods with splashes of color. Well done.
