Chuck... have to applaude you for posting this shot. At first glance it'd be easy to overlook the soft light, the subtle composition, and the sweet DOF. Stellar imaage I'd say, when lately it seems so many want to enhance and alter till the actual reason the photo was taken is gone. This right here is simply great photography. #1193811

Wow, what a great comment Christine. I almost didn't post this, just for the reason you stated. I'm also guilty sometimes, of over processing my photo, to the point I cant recognize my initial intent, and what attracted me to take the photo in the first place. Fortunately I had a clear image in mind, and I stuck with it... This time anyway. Thank You, Chuck #8050231

Hello Chuck,

What a beautiful caption (Road to the Forest of Dreams)...
It simply is dreamy!! Awesome path.. I'd take it! Not only does the path draw me in and wanna see what is up and around the corner.. the soft delicate tree tops do!
Very beautiful!!

This is a great shot Chuck. It allmost looks like you used a lensbaby to get the beautiful soft blur at the edges. #8051456
