    I like the picture, very creative and full of style, it’s just a shame there’s so much image noise and sharpening. what settings where you using? there’s also some quite harsh fringing around the edge of the main tree trunk. I think that might be due to the compression. The picture itself is wonderful!

    Enchanting it is. This is another place where the faerie folk must live :)

    I’m using my canon digital, which is basically just a point and shoot except for the ability to change the shutter speed and aperture. This picture is as-is, and I haven’t done anything except put it on my computer. To me, that’s most of what makes it so great!

  • bigbizarre

    Ok… all things considered this picture is great.

    It was here that I saw her,
    Among the mist and ferns of an early dawn,
    She stood silent, not even a stir,
    Blending int the background like she belonged.

    Many times I’ve come to find,
    But never again I’ve seen her,
    It’s like I’ve gone blind,
    Just the sun now shines where I remember,
    As my heart knows she’ll return in time.

    Love the lighting, the way the sun enhances the shadows and the brilliant shades of green.
