Nature is great and you surely did capture a piece a magic.
What you could do to emphasize the glowing effect is aplly a soft focus. As a bonus you will find that the lighting in your images becomes better balanced.
Thanks for posting this one, these shots are among my favourites!

Lovely! Paul has a good suggestion about the focus.

I know what you mean about not quite capturing the breathtaking beauty of the moment. However, this is a fine shot, so good luck on improving it!

I like the shot....but wished you had that road left out this capture.
This is such a dreamy place....but daily reallity is in the corner.

Definately a wish I was there type of shot. Well done, Cheers Al.

Very pretty! I see you are from Indiana, but this shot reminds me of a place where I love to go camping in East Texas! Thanks for sharing this great shot!

Thanks for all the nice comments.
I haven't been online for a while so I just read them.

really beautiful shot, absolutely love it

great show, and magnificant colors!!! On my desktop right away :)

I like this, it just says "Come, walk this way, into the light, come see what I have here". It's one of natures many beautiful faces, the play of light in a forest, and you captured it very well!
