    Ah this lovely tree has made a comeback – just wonderful use of light and shadow here—enjoy your fall – I think the rain has probably started already – dave

  • failingjune replied

    Thanks David! I am a bit worried since it has been raining lately and we are nearing the peak of this tree. Hopefully the leaves are still intact!!! I’m returning this Friday :)

    Wow. Taking photos of understory like this is usually quite difficult. The fact that there are so many amazing colours and details shows what a quality photo this is. I love the sene aswell. It’s a paradise that’s for sure. All that lush greenery and old growth. Inspiring.

    I love the way you captured the mood. I could lose my self there forever. What is down the path on those soft green mounds? I love art that makes you want to see around the corner.
    Looks like the perfect spot for a nap.

  • failingjune replied

    I really appreciate it! Past the soft mounds is a pond. I don’t mean to advertise myself, but here is a photograph that shows what is past the mounds: http://www.redbubble.com/people/failingjune/art/757770-3-eden-i
