Beautiful use of natural light and shadows.
Gorgeous view, fine greens and golden yellow light.
I like when a photographer uses natural light correctly showing the beauty of true colors and correct white balance control.
Fine capture Cara ;)

What a beautiful scene. There is a mystical quality with the lighting as it illuminates the central portion of the forest and then then is overcome by the rich darker greens.

The reflection in the water adds to the mystery of this place. Great eye for seeing the potential in this one and then doing your after photo magic.

Yes...it is very pretty.
Almost looks like gold streaming water pouring down. The greens are beautiful and vivid. The scene is very tranquil. Nicely captured.

A very beautiful view along the canal in Whales with the sunshine filtering down through the trees' canopy above the beauty of the sunlight glowing through the foliage & then reflected on the surface of the glistening water. Artistic composition framing and lighting taken with superb camera techniques and sharp focus.

Annie, this is drop dead gorgeous!

All the hues of green are so beautiful and how the light is shining through is truly a testament to God's creations.

Nicely focused and a fine placement where the light is placed.

Love this.

Comment from seshadri_sreenivasan
This is a fine piece of Nature Photography. This clearly shows how we can find beauty even in some mundane things which we otherwise take for granted.. The entire composition, colours, light make this first rate. Well Done!
