Enchanted Forest

[Bajan]

Last Saturday I had an unusual experience I visited Welchman Hall Gully in the middle of Barbados and took about 200 photographs. Here are just a couple of some very interesting trees.

FYI: Gullies in Barbados are homes to wild vegetation and animals. A gully is a winding ravine approximately 20 meters deep. They were originally underground caves and developed when the roofs of these caves collapsed over time creating a valley-like formation.

I find on the second shot that the highlights are a little washed out but wasn't able to do much about that, I hope you find these photos as enchanting as I did nonetheless.

Nice potential for this photo, but I agree that there need to be some adjustments on the brightness/contrast. They do remind me of something in middle earth though .

WOW and a little scary. These pix complement each other nicely. The lighting is a little contrasty on the bottom one, might be able to correct with some dig software. But very very nice. I guess Im a sucker for trees

Hi! Hope you don't mind, but I made some quick adjustments inPhotoshop to see what I could bring out. The second photo you posted did get the highlights washed out a little more, but I was really wanting to see the intricate detail in the shadows. Also did a little USM, which made a huge difference right away Not sure if it's really an improvement or not, but thought I'd post them just the same. these pictures are absolutely GORGEOUS...those trees are amazing!!!
