One afternoon a few years ago I drove through Silver Falls State Park, Oregon, and while I didn't have time to do any hiking, I was able to stop in a couple of places to take some photos. A little late-day mist rolled in and produced a wonderful atmosphere in the wood. It's easy to believe in the unbelievable when you're befogged in a forest like this!
Which fairy tale or fantasy story does this photo make you think of?
I admit it, I'm addicted to atmosphere. I don't know if there's a cure!
Visually I would love this to be the decor of 'red riding hood', I mean, a little red girl running in these woods would create an amazing photo op, right?

Somehow you would not be surprised if gnomes and elves appeared in your picture. It is a beautiful mystical picture.

It doesn't make think of a fairy tale or fantasy story but it makes me want to have one!! : ) And I'd love to learn how to edit like that... oh my goodness!!!! : O

So now I can get past that... hmmm, maybe The Lion, The Witch & the Wardrobe or a bit of Once Upon a Time...

It reminds me of Prince Caspian, but more a general feeling than an actual place in the book...

Oh, about the editing? Well, I don't remember what I did to edit this, but it looks like mostly a white balance adjustment to make it cooler, dropping the exposure to make it moodier, and adding a "glow," with a subtle Gaussian blur in Photoshop.

Oh my... I have no idea what you're saying... but I'll file that for a later date perhaps! ; ) Something to work on! : ) On average, how long can you spend editing one image?
Downvoting a post can decrease pending rewards and make it less visible. Common reasons:

Averaging about an hour, lately. Between half an hour and two hours? I do a lot of images that use bracketed exposures, and panoramas, and stuff like that.

Nah, I know how to do stuff, but I definitely don't know what I'm going to do beforehand - that's why it takes so long, I try a lot of things. :)
