Description
Reprocessed for the new site - [link]I captured this 3 years ago in a reserve in a mountain valley just outside my home town. Though the lane still stands, the plantations around it have burned down and the ground within the reserve is being rehabilitated to it's natural flora. So this scene will never be the same again.
Jonkershoek nature reserve, South Africa

Wow this is a great photo! I love how it gets whiter as you proceed along the trail. The white adds a great eerie feeling to it.

Wow! Do you mind if I make a background out of this for a profile on a website? If I can I will give you full credit. I want to put a poem around the picture or below it on the background, if I can make it.

It's fucking amazing. Were there any effects added on it later? (photoshopping, etc..), or is this the raw image right off the camera
Just asking, cuz I haven't been able to diffrentiate between photoshopped images and natural ones for a while. This one looks kinda natural, but I'm not entirely sure.
In any case, it's a beautiful picture.

Recently I've been trying to keep my images as natural as possible while still doing the necesary processing. I did quite a lot on this. Darkened the sides of the photo, enhanced the leaf's colors...
