I thought I caught a glimpse of her, there at the end of the row between the trees - just where the dark of the surrounding forest starts. Just a glimpse, with the light reflecting off her wings as she blinked out of sight. I would have thought it just imagination had I not also heard three lilting notes as clear as bells.

hm nice autumn and alley but I lack there something maybe that the rows of trees are 'limited'(if you know what I mean)... not so interesting for me(probably mostly coz of that fact) so I give just 4 sorry

the shadows here could be really amazing- i'd try shooting it again in the late afternoon. Really love the feel here though :)

Lovely grove of trees - I just wish there was something to look at when we get to the end of the nice leading line of the grass. Still a nice shot with lovely colors and shapes.

nice calm feeling to this
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 03/14/2009 11:10:12 AM
for me, cropping to bring the trees right to the edge would have been more dramatic,,, jmo

lovely colors and soft focus, but lacks some interesting subject.
  Photographer found comment helpful.

This is a very appealing image, great lighting, I love the colours, the precision of the dark trunked trees but I really love those pastel shades peeping through the background

This seems to be straight from a fairy tale. I feel like Snow White would get married here.

A nice, simple photo. But it really doesn't speak much to me. The colors are a little dull for such a nice scene and I wish it were sharper and less sharpened.

Nice perspective!

 03/12/2009 04:17:32 AM
Beautiful greens and path but kind of wish there was a subject in the path.
