Wow, what a scene. Great composition. Dark and murky mood. Very nice.

Fan-friggen-tastic. :)

I feel it's a little too bright. Not everywhere, I think there needs to be vignette or some gradient brightness adjustments to kind of lead the eye through the image. Right now it's all more or less evenly bright across the frame.

Also, maybe just a touch of blur on the highlights would add to the dreamy other-world feel.

Beautiful shot. I love the contrast between the bleached trunks and the muted reds and tans of the leaves. Nice work.

The colors and tones in this are spectacular! I'm just dying to see how you did the post-processing on this one!! So mythical. One of my only 9's ever.
