wow, you even make a shot like that, where it looks like you barely processed, look so moody and stand out like crazy... thanks for the fun comment tonight, i feel guilty now lol

@Elaine: Thanks Elaine! Naw, it's just that I used to get in a lot of trouble, but you, you got away with it! Be proud! Hee hee hee.

A fab composition for sure. Does anything dangerous lurk in the shadows?

@Michael Skorulski: Thank Michael. Hmmm...I never thought to wonder, but perhaps, yes! I'll be more careful next time ;)
Kylie Greenan from Richmond, Australia
Looks like a beautiful place to just walk and let the inner thoughts be still. Stunning capture, the colour is superb, quite different for you BC, but still in your style, always delightfully moving and inspiring!

@Kylie Greenan: Thanks Kylie. This is a place where I can usually be found. It's part of a 16km walk around the ocean, and a large park with forest lies within. It was raining really hard this day, and it made the colours of autumn so intense, so it was worth getting soaked :)

Looks like a nice place to walk. It's really peaceful looking...

Very atmospheric image, it looks like a lonely spot. A good place to go to be alone with your thoughts perhaps. Lovely mood and tones

Ok, so now you're showing off in color, too? This is an incredibly beautiful, softly moody autumnal moment. I want to walk that path and take it all in.

@Viewfinder: Thanks so much! But all the credit goes to nature and the wonderful season we call autumn. I just happened to be standing there :)

There is a definite sense of foreboding in this image. The lovely leaves can't overpower all those dark tones. Well done.

The deep treatment gives this picture a strong appeal to me. I like the curves and general composition very much. I must add this to my vfxy fall collection.

It make me think of a painting, impressionnist period ;) I like this path, this great moment of emotion.
The title is marvelous too, for a nice week-end!

Big deep sigh.... Lovely, peaceful, serene... a place to meditate/ponder/be.

simply a wonderful place -- and such an atmosphere! i can see you sitting here -- recuperating, re-energizing, getting inspired, working things out, coming to new resolutions -- and above all seeking solace with yourself. an artist has 'haunts', places where they can disappear from the world... become invisible, turn a corner, enter a different dimension -- leave it all behind... thank you for sharing this magical space w/ us! beautiful sentiment!!
