 Went for a hike in an old-growth area, hoping the sun would come out enough to shoot. (I'm north of Seattle; we're not having a spring this year.)

I was in an area with lots of moss, but the trees were still bare of leaves, when the sun decided to come out for a while. I took this shot with star and an ND4 filters.

The lines that the rays of the sun make are very bright and long and demand attention, and the entire photograph has very sharp detail.

This is really interesting because of that radioactive looking green! that purple spot is a bit distracting but overall this is probably the most interesting and unique subject i have seen so points for that!

The tree branch looks like a rabbit. Interesting how the light turned rainbow off to the left.
