A path in Elizabeth Park - West Hartford, Connecticut. I spend a lot of time in this park - it's beyond beautiful. I used 2 textures on this: Ghostbones "Vintage Sky" and IrisB477 "Copper Grunge". Thanks, guys.

A small world, yet lot to discover. The autumn colour is in the mind, in the soul. It's just an reflection of that.

A small forest road.

Snow muted everything as the narrow path curved into the timber, banks piled high on either side like the world had been gently shoveled into silence; the trees leaned in heavy with fresh powder, their branches stitched in frost, and somewhere ahead two small lanterns burned—steady, warm dots in the blue-gray dusk—making the road feel less like a place you got lost and more like a place you were being quietly guided back to, one careful step at a time.

A quiet forest path disappearing into the morning fog. Soft light filtering through the trees creates a calm, moody atmosphere — a moment where the woods feel almost otherworldly.

Shot with Nikon Z6 • 24–70mm • natural fog.

A nice small forest road.

Across Lacey and Berkeley Townships in Ocean County, NJ.

Six photographs were combined to get a full view of the tree leaning over the trail. The day that I shot this, I was looking for forest mist and fog. Unfortunately the mist stayed in the nearby meadow and wetlands and did not penetrate the forest except on the edges. There is just a hint of the softening mist in the background.

 

Woodland photography is about light, multiple visits and seeing composition in chaotic forest. At its best, woodland photography offers beauty and emotion as well as forest detail. This goal that is not a hardship as many visits to forests and woodlands are required,

 

This is an informational picture of this trail and a distinctive leaning tree marker. The additional qualities that make for a fine art style woodland pictures will take some more time and effort. Still - it is a nice trail and a great woodland walk through second a second growth West Coast forest.

Besneeuwd bospaadje in omgeving Medemblik/Snowcovered forestpath near Medemblik

Um troço dos passadiços de madeira nas Lagoas de Bertiandos e São Pedro de Arcos, inseridos na Paisagem Protegida do concelho de Ponte de Lima, no distrito de Viana do Castelo. Esta infraestrutura elevada é crucial para o ecoturismo, permitindo a circulação de visitantes em zonas sensíveis sem compactar o solo ou danificar a vegetação ribeirinha. A área, classificada como Zona Húmida de Importância Internacional e parte da Rede Natura 2000, abrange cerca de 350 hectares, resultado da dinâmica hidrológica histórica do rio Lima. Os passadiços atravessam um mosaico de habitats, incluindo lagoas permanentes, bosques aluviais e áreas de pastagem, protegendo o ecossistema pantanoso, que conta com uma densa flora higrófila. Este ambiente é vital para a filtragem natural da água e serve de refúgio para diversas espécies de avifauna e anfíbios. Além de facilitar a observação e educação ambiental, os passadiços promovem a conservação da biodiversidade, equilibrando acesso, lazer e proteção do território.

 

A section of the wooden walkways at the Bertiandos and São Pedro de Arcos Lagoons, located within the Protected Landscape of Ponte de Lima, in the district of Viana do Castelo. This elevated infrastructure is crucial for ecotourism, allowing visitor circulation through sensitive areas without compacting the soil or damaging the riverside vegetation. Classified as a Wetland of International Importance and part of the Natura 2000 Network, this area spans approximately 350 hectares, shaped by the historical hydrological dynamics of the Lima River. The walkways traverse a mosaic of habitats, including permanent lagoons, floodplain forests, and pasture areas, while protecting the underlying wetland ecosystem characterized by dense hygrophilous flora. This environment is vital for natural water filtration and serves as a refuge for various species of avifauna and amphibians. In addition to facilitating observation and environmental education, the walkways promote biodiversity conservation, balancing access, recreation, and territorial protection.

One of the pictures to see the different look of HP5 rated @ 1600 (pushed two stops) in comparison to Delta 3200 rated @ 1600 (the actual sensitivity of this film).

 

Using the Novar triplet lens with wide aperture f/5.6 results in a distinct softening, which adds to the background softening from the limited depth of field.

Cassius in Autumn Light

 

In the golden light of a Norwegian autumn, Cassius walks with quiet confidence. Captured from his own perspective using the Insta360 X5, this image invites us to see the world through his eyes – low to the ground, full of texture, scent, and warmth. The fallen leaves, the long shadows, and the crisp air all speak of a season in transition, where every step is a story.

 

Fun Fact

Cassius is named after the legendary boxer Muhammad Ali (born Cassius Clay), and just like his namesake, he moves with grace and purpose – even on a casual autumn stroll.

Doesn't look much like a graveyard anymore.

Here's a photo of a nice sunny section of the path that I was walking along the other day.

 

Have a nice weekend everyone... whatever you all get up to! :)

Captured in Ashridge from 2022 on a misty/foggy morning. the warm tones of the beech leaves and the soft fog created a natural painterly atmosphere.

Just wanted to further explore the different look of analog versus digital photos of the same scenery. The pictures were taken on different days but under quite similar light conditions (about the same daytime in sunny weather). For the digital shots I used the Sigma DP2M camera with its foveon sensor, delivering extraordinary sharpness and micro contrast. For the analog shots I used one of my cameras with the largest negative format available to me: my Agfa Record III 6x9 cm format folder, which recently has been CLA’d by Hans Klinkhamer (Netherlands). Hans achieved his training as camera repairer at the Agfa Camerawerke Munich and did a very good job. At f-stops smaller than 5.6 the image quality of this Apotar triplet is indistinguishable from the renowned Tessar-type Solinar of my second Agfa Record folder.

 

The digital b&w veriants can be seen here:

Personally, I prefer the film version because of its more pictorial look, resulting from the softer contours of the leaves and the fine grain, accentuating the texture of the barks. For me, the sharpness of the folder lens is absolutely sufficient even for larger prints. In my opinion, the highly resolved pictures of modern digital cameras tend to produce some kind of stimulus satiation. In many cases, the viewer doesn’t want to see so many details but only the decisive elements of a composition. Otherwise, using 35mm film cameras or even pin hole cameras would make no sense anymore.
