On the nearby mountain, on a cloudy Saturday morning. These old trees are all over the place, they stand taller than the surrounding dwarf oaks, like petrified ancient kings, long dead but still standing.

I think I'll go there again tomorrow.

A path I would certainly walk with trepidation ... I can already feel the mist settle on my arms chilling the warmth of the sun as I move forward into the darkness.

This is an amazing capture. Love it!

This is great, well done. I can almost feel the mist on my skin & smell the coffee in my thermos cup, the mystery & magic of wild places is everywhere around me. Wish I could click on "view full-sized imeage."

great job with the HDR. Wonderful light makes the "petrified ancient kings" (love your choice of words) stand out beautifully

don't blame your skill on photomatix ;-) this picture is so good because of the effort you put into it ... it gives a great feeling to look at this.

Love it! I'd hate to break down there though. LOL! This could be the setting for one of those "made a wrong turn" horror movies.

Marvelously moody; that big bare tree reminds me of the nasty trees that come to life in The Wizard of Oz. I'm both curious and apprehensive about what's around that bend!

Gorgeous. Try selecting for the pavement and throwing a multiply gradient on it so it darkens in the foreground?

Absolutely beautiful. I like the "lighter hand" of hdr here, really sets up the image very well.

I'm loving these moody, Halloweenish shots I am seeing. I feel like I need to get in the game. The weather is suppose to turn nasty tommorro, so maybe I will have some luck then. Love the effect you have done on this.
