You've caught the thickness of the woods very nicely here. Well done.

Dimitrios from ATHENS, Greece

a very moody sceen, like the leaf carpet!

@Dimitrios: Thanks Dimitrios, the underneath the carpet ants have their homes in the little hills, I put the camera on one of them, in Summer it wouldn't be possible, the image would be blurred by ants crawling over the lens :)

Japanalia from Yokohama, Japan

An ideal place to take photos! Trees are always good models, the older, the better!Great angle here and very moody atmosphere, I can almost hear the leaves under the feet making dry sounds.

@eddy: Me too, but I strive for best quality, and I don't always succeed, everybody knows that feeling. Thanks, eddy!

Wolfgang Prigge from Canada

Er moeten vele paddestoelen hier in seizoen zijn.

@Wolfgang Prigge: Vielleicht, aber das stückchen Wald hier ist zuviel ein Monokultur mit nur Tännern, ihre Nädel machen den Boden ziemlich sauer, es gibt in der Nähe auch andere Vegetation mit mehr Chance auf Paddestoelen (was ist das Deutsche Wort noch mal, oh ja, Pfilzern)

Steven from Montreal, Canada

This photo is well composed and has a lonely feel to it.

@Steven: Yes, originally my text was: "Only the lonely can fully appreciate the silence here" but that was too much association to the famous song of Roy Orbison which I didn't find very well suited to it.

Brian from West Lafayette, Afghanistan

A beautiful image that truly captures a sense of peace and solitude.

@Brian: Thanks Brian, see my reply to Steven.

Very peaceful. I tried counting the branches but I gave up! Nice angle. :)

Rabbit from Richmond, United States

I feel as if i have now become lost in the forest - Do you know the way out?

8 Jan 2008 3:29pm

@Rabbit: Well I'm glad to raise this "illuci-on" by this picture, in fact it's not difficult to find the way out, I was walking here during lunch break and was back when we started working again :)

Rebecca from Leicester, United Kingdom

WOW. The subdued tones and the entire composition here are so beautiful. Utterly wonderful sense of hush and depth to this piece. I love it. Thank you also for your comments at my post today, Erik. I deeply appreciate them. :)
