Photographer’s Note
Yesterday it was a cold day, but excellent for a winter strolls.
This photograph has been taken in the beautiful forest, the sun was one hours presently, and then have I this photograph made.
The “Drongengoedbos” are largest to one closed bunch area in “Oost-Vlaanderen”.
The bunch lies on the territory of the municipalities Maldegem and Knesselare
The total surface of the “Drongengoedbos” amounts to approximately 550 ha of what approximately 390 ha are managed by the department bunch and green of the Flemish district.
The current management of the department bunch and greenness has been based on the multipurpose bunch management.
This photo I have cropped to better composition.
I hope you like it.

Goedemorgen,John!
Nice capture from your morning-stroll.
Of course it´s the beautiful reflection in the brooklet that "makes"the pic.
I really like the wide range of blue tones in the reflection.
Good job!

bonjour John. L'image est belle avec les couleurs de l'hiver. L'angle de vue est bien choisi, il donne de l'importance à ce petit ruisseau.
Belles couleurs et beau contraste.

goedendag John.
Het beeld is mooi met de kleuren van de winter. De hoek van standpunt wordt goed gekozen, hij geeft van het belang aan deze kleine stroom.
Mooie kleuren en mooi contrast.

Wederom een eenvoudige maar mooie foto John. Prachtige zonbelichte weergave van en tussen de bomen en zoals altijd bij jou, die scherpe reflecties in het blauwe wateroppervlak.
Mooi en boeiend om naar te kijken.

Ik kan niet meer zeggen dan dat dit weer een prachtfoto is, John. Technisch kan ik, omdat ik maar een amateurke ben, daar niet teveel over zeggen, maar de kleuren zijn wondermooi. Lijken wel een beetje herfstkleuren.
groeten,
Luc.

Good detail from this forest John. I like especially the very good reflections from the little creek. Good perspective and lead by the road and the little creek.

So simple, but quite delightful the result you got shooting in the forest. The afternoon light contribues a nice ambience, and the reflections in the creek add a delightful detail. Very nice one, John.

Bonjour John,
Quoi de plus salutaire qu'une promenade à travers bois et à proximité d'un ruisseau qui reflète un ciel bleu !
Je suis partant pour un petit bout de balade.
Belles couleurs hivernales.
Bien vu et bien fait.

Ce que je préfère sur cette photo, c'est le ruisseau en bas pour sa belle couleur bleue et ses ses reflets. Ces tronc d'arbres sont très bien aussi dans la composition. Prima, John!

I love the way the light is striking those trees. The colors look great under that lighting too. I like the parallelism between the path and the creek. Great shot!

The strong colors of the puddle atracts the eye and gives life to the soft colors of winter. A classic and beautiful JHM picture, very well composed.

This is a great one with this angle, this framing to make us walk on this path and see this water and reflections.
I Like it

Hi John
I like the curve of the canal & the reflections. Excellent sharpness & color. The vertical trees add some good repetition to the compo. Well done!

Bonsoir John,
Quelle belle image avec des arbres qui ne sont pas pour une fois alignés ! ;-)
J'admire ces reflets bleu dans l'eau du fossé. L'éclairage du soleil sur les arbres est très beau.
Bien vu !

These trails of yours are fantastic. They are so calm. Here there is a warmth in the midst of the cold. The light filtering between the bare branches and the path and leaves and reflection all give that warmth. The composition again draws the eye right in and really engages me to move between the trees. Well taken.

Hi John,
A good POV of the path in the forest and of the reflection of the trees in the water, the photo has a good composition, DOF and nice colors. Have a nice day.
