    David, great title and treatment. This reminds me of so many secret paths I’ve known.. odd nooks and overlooked by-ways, that on an inkling I have followed.. to worthwhile finds, significant adventures. Lovely to see that feeling of promise, mingled hope and un-knowing, captured in a shot.

  • David Silsbury replied

    Thank you for your great comments and encouragement.

    When I saw this gateway I just knew that I could turn it into something special. It took a little time and many layers to achieve the desired effect. Secret Path has been viewed over 800 times in the last three weeks so in my opinion it was well worth it.

    Thank you once again.
