Filtered light by Mother Nature. The greenish look was from the sunrise shining through a thin layer of leaves.

Hi Gary!

I really like the weird feeling, and the blue cast in the background adds lots of mystery, along with the outrageous reflections. It is very appealing to me, with lots of interests ... and I am interested to read the suggestions from the experts.

Hi Gary
I agree with Brian. I confess my ignorance: what's Mother Nature?

Hi Gary,
Hmmmmmmm........while I like the concept.........a few thigs are off with this one.........the sharpness on the center cypress needs to be tack sharp..........and on my monitor it's not............the LH lit tree has to be cropped......as it is competing with the central tree!........on the right side.......the moss is making a whitish/bright line........which draws attention away from the center tree....which is the center of interest. Check the sharpness........and re-post if it's there.

Gary,

Compositionally, Roman nailed the critique. I agree.

Light and mood are definitely unique.

Mother Nature is a common anthropomorphized representation of nature that focuses on the life-giving and nurturing features of nature by embodying it in the form of the mother.

Roman has some very helpful tips. Would love to see a repost.
