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.
Morning light drifting through the forest,
quiet and patient, touching every leaf like a promise of peace.
Início do trilho para a Fervenza de Augacaída, junto à aldeia de Marce, no concelho de Pantón, província de Lugo, este percurso pedestre desce por um bosque atlântico de carvalhos e castanheiros até um vale encaixado. “Fervenza”, termo galego para cascata, designa aqui uma queda de água alimentada por linhas de drenagem sazonais, mais expressiva após as chuvas e no final do inverno. A paisagem integra a Ribeira Sacra, território marcado por encostas de xisto, socalcos e viticultura heroica, nas proximidades dos vales do Minho e do Sil, bem como por uma densa rede de mosteiros românicos que historicamente estruturaram o uso agrícola e florestal. A sinalética, simples e resistente, orienta o visitante num troço de declive acentuado e piso irregular, onde a conservação do solo e o controlo da erosão são essenciais para preservar o trilho e a vegetação ribeirinha.
The trail to the Fervenza de Augacaída begins near the village of Marce, in the municipality of Pantón, province of Lugo. This hiking route descends through an Atlantic forest of oak and chestnut trees to a deep valley. “Fervenza,” the Galician term for waterfall, refers here to a waterfall fed by seasonal drainage channels, which is most impressive after rains and in late winter. The landscape is part of the Ribeira Sacra, a region characterized by schist slopes, terraced fields, and “heroic” viticulture, near the Minho and Sil valleys, as well as by a dense network of Romanesque monasteries that historically shaped agricultural and forestry practices. The simple, durable signage guides visitors along a section with a steep incline and uneven terrain, where soil conservation and erosion control are essential to preserving the trail and the riparian vegetation.
Un torii es una puerta japonesa tradicional, que suele hallarse a la entrada de un santuario sintoísta. Simbólicamente marca la transición de lo mundano a lo sagrado, por ello también se encuentran dentro del mismo.
La primera aparición de puertas torii en Japón se puede localizar de manera confiable al menos en el período medio de Heian; se mencionan en un texto escrito en 922. El torii de piedra más antiguo existente fue construido en el siglo XII y pertenece a un santuario Hachiman en la prefectura de Yamagata. El torii de madera más antiguo existente es un ryōbu torii en el santuario Kubō Hachiman en la prefectura de Yamanashi construido en 1535.
Las puertas Torii se hacían tradicionalmente de madera o piedra, pero hoy en día también pueden estar hechas de hormigón armado, cobre, acero inoxidable u otros materiales. Por lo general, son bermellones sin pintar o pintados con un dintel superior negro. Los santuarios de Inari suelen tener muchos torii porque aquellos que han tenido éxito en los negocios a menudo donan en agradecimiento un torii a Inari, kami de la fertilidad y la industria. Fushimi Inari-taisha en Kioto tiene miles de tales torii, cada uno con el nombre del donante.

A scenic autumn forest road with stacked logs along the sides, showing the beauty of fall colors and the calm atmosphere of the season. The golden and orange leaves create a warm contrast with the earthy tones of the wood — a peaceful countryside landscape capturing the essence of autumn.
I'm a big fan of impressionism and loved this week's challenge!
With ICM I created the impressionistic blur effect and then I only had to tweak the colors & contrasts, and add a canvas texture.
HSS!

By keeping his head above water, this guy is able to breathe…and keep an eye on the photographer.
Update: Thanks to ForestPath for pointing out that frogs can also breathe oxygen through their skin under water.

An ordinary woodland path transformed into a spectacular display of autumn colours. Under the brilliant midday sun, the foliage blazes with fiery reds, glowing oranges and radiant gold, as if the forest itself were burning. Yet there is no fire, only sunlight illuminating nature's magnificent autumn palette. A quiet path leads into this glowing world, inviting the viewer to step inside and experience the magic of the season.

The Old Putnam rail trail in Van Cortlandt Park is closed to become a paved path, but this is an offshoot that once was a commuter rail to Getty Square in Yonkers.
I love how in northeastern forest the lower shrub level get a shot at full sunlight before the canopy takes the sun away. Now the spicebush is going strong, the viburnums are catching up and pretty soon it will be the the flowering dogwoods turn. Right after that the hickory, ash and maples turn the forest dark and mysterious.
There was trout lily and bloodroot leaves on the ground but no flowers yet. I guess the ground flowers are waiting for a little more insect activity. The natural order of things are soothing during a pandemic.

Besides attempting to capture the autumn colors of my local forest, I wanted to test my recently acquired Rollei 35 and also the look of Kodak Gold in dull weather.
52Frames | Week 24: “Blue Hour” Runner-up
This walking path is just one of many that connect different parts of the neighborhood by the lake. When my kids had their first swim meet of the summer, I took the opportunity to scout this location for a potential evening light painting session. One particular section of the path caught my eye, so I returned just before blue hour to set up my shot. I’m sure I looked quite suspicious wandering around with my tripod, camera, and backpack—sorry, neighbors!
I used gelled flashlights to illuminate the sides of the path, then walked up to the fence and lit it with a 4000K flashlight. Finally, I walked back with that same 4000K light, using my backlight scanner to illuminate the path behind me. I’m glad I applied strong insect repellent beforehand, as there were plenty of mosquitoes, ticks, and noseeums looking to make a meal out of me. Overall, I’m pleased with the effort I put into capturing this shot.
A quiet walk beneath a line of torii in Fukuoka, where summer light and deep shadows shape the rhythm of the path. The lone figure moving toward the shrine gate adds calm and scale to this timeless scene. Captured in July 2025
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.
Quick draw to get this shot. I had done a family portrait shot and we were on our way to another site when I saw this image of the two young girls skipping out of the forest.
Morning sunlight filters through a chestnut forest in Montanchez, Spain, creating a warm and peaceful autumn glow along the forest path.
A lone walker stands where the path meets the light.
The forest rises around him and makes the scale feel larger than the frame.
A quiet moment of black and white street photography, with urban solitude in the middle of Groningen.
On a quiet autumn walk, I discovered this little mushroom rising from the forest floor, surrounded by fallen leaves and fading light. With my new 45mm lens, I tried to capture not just the details, but the feeling of calm and wonder that lingers in the woods at this time of year.

The play of light and shadow moves like a living rhythm through the forest — a fleeting moment caught in motion, where the calm of the trees meets the blur of passing time.
Fun fact
Did you know that pine forests like this one are designed by nature to let sunlight reach the forest floor? Their tall, slender trunks and sparse canopy create shifting light patterns that change with every hour of the day.

Nature remains.

Accidental background blur due to lack of film flatness, probably caused by unfolding the camera too rapidly. The fine-grain Kodak TMax 400 film delivers smooth tonal value transitions, especially in the blurred area in the center, which is framed by a relatively sharp border area. For some reason I actually like the look.
