Do you ever forget you took a photo?

It can be challenging to get a good photo in the forest without fog or mist. You always need to be extra creative in pursuit of something decent. I love shooting this scene. I do it in all seasons.

I was deliberately planning to shoot in this forest for this shot. The fresh lush forest is just too attractive to me. Hope one day to manage to photograph it in foggy conditions, as I never did. Although I found this forest as a local one, it still needs some sort of vehicle to get there and I have other places where I go when fog is outside.

I wanted to include a trail as a contrast to the greens around. It was a cloudy and overcast day. Perfect for forest shots. I have a position that is a bit above the trail. From there I choose the most optimal perspective for me to take a shot. This scene I found a few years ago which is strange given the fact I go to this forest much longer. It looks magical in autumn. Can’t wait for yellows and oranges to come to this place to photograph it.

Anyway, I took a bunch of photos that day from this place, came home, transferred them and then totally forgot about even going for a shot, as that was the second time in a short period I went there. Just last week I suddenly recalled that I may have an ‘’extra’’ album with photos… And here it is. In the edit, I did some dodging and burning to make the light stand out a bit. Different shades of greens are such a spring thing. Hope you like the photo. I’m highly open to any feedback you have.
