Hello Christian,
Just incredible !!!
Just the light effect and the wood would make a great shot ... But with the bike, and in the best place, this is just fantastic.
Congratulations.

Ciao Christian,
ti confermi ai miei occhi l'uomo delle nebbie e soprattutto un grandissimo nel creare atmosfere molto belle e suggestive. Composizione favolosa con i giochi di luce del sottobosco filtrati dalla nebbia, con la presenza del ciclista che e' come la ciliegina sulla torta. Qualita' eccellente, cosi' come la presentazione.
Un caro saluto,
Igor

hallo Christian,
was fuer eine Ueberrangende Ansicht. Mir gefaellt das Licht, die durch die Baeume durchsickt...die Tonen sind durch das Nebel irgendwie gestoert...trotzdem sind die angenehm....und irgendwie weisen auf einen Fabel!
sehr gute Aufnahme.
Hut Ab!

ciao Christian,
che dire...controlla il cellophane perche' ha
dei buchi e i raggi del sole penetrano...
a parte gli scherzi andare con la mountain bike
tra questi boschi all'inizio dell'autunno
e con la luce del sole che filtra deve essere
una incredibile sensazione e tu ce l'hai fatta
provare....un'altro post coi fiocchi!!!
complimenti sERGIO

Hi Christian,
Beautiful light, colours and atmosphere, looks like a fantastic place for cycling.
Nicely composed too with the verticals of the trees and the diagonal movement of the mountainside and the placement of the sun and the cyclist in opposite corners.
But most of all it's that wonderful light that makes it.

Ciao Christian.
Atmosfera meravigliosa da "Signore degli Anelli" se non fosse per il biker, che non esisteva nella famosa "Terra di mezzo", e per Frodo che non sapeva andare in bici!
Spero di averti fatto sorridere... il lavoro è magnifico!

Hi Christian,
It0s impressive this explosion of light, in strong contrast with the dark forest... the biker is a plus, a good addition. I like the mystery mood, the quietness, the silence. It's really beautiful! Thanks!

Hi Christian,
That golden light filtering through the trees creates such a special atmosphere. Everything seems so quiet and I can almost smell the scent of the forest. What a calming shot and the cyclist is a nice inclusion alone in nature. Lovely!

Hi Christian,
As if the Elf procession is just about to begin, or i can almost hear the neighing of a unicorn...
Very mysterious atmosphere, and great use of counterlight. The cyclist is essential to give the huge size of the elegant trees. I like the warm tones.

Hi Christian,
Now that's very good use of the light, the left part of the forest looks enchanted and you have placed the biker just at the best possible position so that it catches the eye by contrast, nice image.
Have a nice day JY

Hello Christian.
This one seems destined to go down as a TE 'classic'. It's superbly composed and exposed and full of atmosphere. Simple, almost minimalistic, but with such a strong focal point and sense of perspective. It's a great autumn picture where the light seems to generate as much movement in it as the cyclist. Very well done.
Regards,
Andrew

The mystic light, the composition and your POV, combined with the biker make this an excellent picture!

Hallo Christian,
Always a certain mood in your landscape pictures. Never just a quick snapshot, it's always well though and well controled in light, objects and composition. Adding that cyclist is proof on that....very good work.

excellent backlight in the woods composition, recently i critiqued a lot of this kind on both TE and TL but i must tell you, this one is the best I've seen for a while since there is this excellent bonus detail of the biker taken in a perfect timing
interesting tones and contrasts too

Lieber Christian! Du hast den Wald "eingefangen"! Ich renne dauernd im Wald herum, aber die Essenz habe ich noch nie richtig fotografisch erkannt. Wunderschoen wie die Sonne an den Boden kommt, wie in feinen Faeden durchmixt mit dem leichten Herbstnebel. Es ist herrlich im Herbst den Wald zu durchkaemmen, das Rascheln von den Blaettern unter den Fuessen und dieser feine Waldduft ... herrlich! Du hast diese Stimmung meisterhaft erfasst, fantastisch. Nun gehe ICH raus ... hocke in der Huette, die ganze Woche, und geniesse die Bergwelt ... Barbara.

ecco il maestro della luce all'opera, bellissimo l'effetto della nebbiolina che filtra la luce e la riscalda di colore.
l'inserimento del ciclista rende questa visione reale.

Fairytale it is! The long trees flooded by this divine light. One could expect Merlin to pop out at any moment from behind one of those trees. Excellent!

This is an incredibly beautiful. The light through the trees is enough to create a awesome photograph but the inclusion of the biker down there in the corner really makes this special. A favorite for sure.

Hi,
nice perspective with the road and the biker, excellent capture of the sun rays in between the dark trees. Excellent compo. the fog helps a lot in the top left to reduce the "overexposure"
excellent job

Atmosfera eccezzionale, colori e luce da far venire la pelle d'oca! Certamenete un capolavoro fra i tuoi capolavori. la luce filtrante fra gli alberi è fantastica, la figura in bicicletta rende terreno un paesaggio dal fascino divino.
