    Re: Trees and shadows

    Do you have a version of this taken lower and more to the left ? The horizon runs through your primary element here. ( Frog just pointed out a similar thing in one of my posts.... ) Also the foliage looks unnaturally dark I I would have thought on such a bright day it would be a bit lighter, the dark hides a bit of the leaf detail and texture.

    Isn't it a cool thing in nature that the colours never seem to clash...

    I have no issues with you editing my photos

    Thanks Hminx.
    I have a version taken lower but the shadows do not pop out as they do on this one. The foliage was actually quite dark not not very dissimilar as on the image (except greener ofc ), that was the reason i shot this image because of the "synchronisity" between the shadows and the actual foliage.

    I do understand your comment about the horizon and i am glad you pointed that out. I will keep that in mind for the next time.
