The colors/greens are a little muted, but the shafts of light through the trees is a classic and wonderful scene. There is a strong mood present, although I think it could do with a little more contrast to bring it out a little more.
Excellent capture -- I usually make shots like this a bit darker and contrasty, but that's definitely a matter of personal taste (and sometimes monitor adjustment).
An excellent choice for this challenge. If you could have used a soft focus filter on this one it would have been even better. It would have been better that electronic soft focus filtering could not be applied for this challenge.
Great subject, good title. very nice soft beams of light. I'd crop a bit on the bottom and bring th land on the left closer if not touching the bottom edge. It gives those light beams (and your eyes) a solid destination and somehow feels better to me.
Overall this is a pleasant shot of what must have been quite dramatic lighting. I do think it looks a bit washed out and there is little in the shot to hold interest for long, other than the sunrays.
It's my kind of soft focus though, so well done for avoiding the net curtains or vaseline!
