This is my first attempt at posting here, so please be gentle.

This was taken last October on the Mtn. Loop Hwy. a little east of Verlot, Washington.

The camera used was a Nikon Coolpix 5700.

Good first post! You're taking on something so intrinsically difficult here----shooting in the forest in high-light, high-contrast conditions---and capturing the sun beams nicely. I'll be eager to hear what others have to say about possible refinements of capture and printing technique. You're on to something, keep working at it and keep posting.

Larry, so far so good, maybe make it a little brighter.

Nice composition and capture. I think if it were lightened a bit it would really sing.

Very nice photo, I want to see it bigger. I agree that lightening it would make it even stronger. Great first post.

Larry,
First of all, welcome to the forum. Glad to have you aboard. As for the photo. I agree it does need to be lightened somewhat but only in the dark areas. Nice shot either way.
