 In the park there's a path leading down by the river. I took quite a few pictures there but went a bit farther and went off the path. The pattern in the roots caught my attention.

I wanted to try my hand at recreating the Holga look here. This is 3 images with HDR, tonemapped, hue/sat, curves, dodge/burn, blur, etc.

Man I'm an idiot because I do not know what Holga is lol. Oh well I guess I better look that one up. The brown tones are a nice complement to the earthly feel of the woods. Your processing does add some depth and dimension to the shot!

I love the holga effect. It makes me feel like I am dreaming. The sepia really works great. It allows the viewer to see all the details of the roots of the tree without being pulled away by other colors, at least in my opinion.

Nice find ... the base of the tree looks like an elephant's foot. Good Holga effect.

I am hoping the X marks a trail and not a mark for cutting! I hate to see trees taken out- for whatever reason.
Even dead they serve a purpose.

All those roots - that tree's been digging itself in for some time. Nice Holga-y effect, gives it a nostalgic feel. What is that on the trunk - a black x?
