A Winter Walk in the Woods

Sadly, this looks as if HDR processing was applied, but overdone. To my eyes this image looks really flat with almost no contrast whatsoever, and I suspect the light may have been rather flat to begin with. I like the color provided by the dead leaves still hanging on the trees.

Wonderful scene and capture. Thanks for showing us some of the other images from that hike too. Many congratulations on the well deserved blue ribbon. Shared the top spot with one other image in my voting.

Great use of the fisheye lens. Interesting reflections and then that burst of color at the far end of the lobby. This and another got my top scores. Congrats on the top ten finish.

Lovely. Wonderful composition with each of them placed as if they might be looking at each other or talking to each other, but both having their attention engaged elsewhere. Love the details on the glasses, the jacket hood, and the bag.

ETA: Knowing what wonderful candid shots you have shot in the past I'm curious about whether this was a candid shot or not ... Thanks
