Forest Friday ...

I'm no Ansel Adams, but I enjoy photography

When I get out into the world I like to shoot things with my Canon ... or my Galaxy s8, whichever is at hand. This beautiful monochrome forest shot was taken in Escondido's Elfin Forest.

This shot captures the play of light and shadows in the trees making a perfect camouflage for the mysterious White Witch of the wood, or the playful dryads, spirits, faery, and sprites.

The tin-type resolution of this photograph gives it an almost Victorian look, as though taken with a pinhole camera with a long exposure.

Sometimes black & white expresses more than colors. Excellent composition I must say.

Thank you, I've been working on developing my skills so that I can sell prints or possibly get gallery space.

Awesome Picture :D

Thank you.

Nice shot.

Thank you.

Yeah...

playful dryads, spirits, faery, and sprites

I don't think so ... To me it looks creepy. Thats how I imagine backyards in abandoned psychiatric institutions look like. :D

The tin-type look does make it look a bit creepy ... perhaps for you it conjures images of slenderman and the other rumored ghosts of the woods...
