That is absolutely stunning! I love how the overlay really calls up the fog and hush of the woods. The overlay and the B&W tones really emphasize the feel of the serene hush and beauty of the woods in the early morning hours. It is magical and breathlessly beautiful now! This just makes me want to re-read the Forest Lover by Vreeland for I imagine this is exactly the moments that the artist Emily Carr got to see when she was exploring the Pacific Northwest.
**O.K. now I am going to have to try this on an old image of a foggy day I managed to capture at a local park but was never happy with.
Wow! I love this. Doesn't make me run into it but this is what I'm trying to achieve with all my pictures of forests. So beautiful and scary!
Brr, just read the comment about the headless horseman, no way I'm going in there :).
Go for it Ursula! I'm pretty sure yours will knock socks off anything I could come up with :)

This is beautiful. This gets me thinking about the possibility for another picture, where you have a top part of trees like you have here, maybe even darker and more gloomy/dreadful, and a similar size bottom part with roots, a sort of "reflection" of what's up in the air, but underground. I'm going to try something like that. Gotta get myself a good gloomy picture of trees, which shouldn't be hard this time of year ...

Added: I hope you don't mind me taking your idea and extending it for a picture for myself.
