Hi John,
Lovely view of this green forest. I really like how sunshine creates those a bit dusty rays of light between trees. Excellent framing.

Hello John,
It's a very beautiful photo from the park and it is very well exposed. The sun is bright but not too bright, and the rays streaming down between the trees are like the legs of a tripod. You captured a very attractive atmosphere, slightly mysterious but mainly beautiful.
Kind regards,
Gert

Hallo John, the light is filtered by the canopy and creates a mysterious atmosphere. The undergrowth is a fascinating place to observe during a bike trip in the middle of the forest. Fine colors, good sharpness, regards.

Hi John,

I like the way you have capture the rays of the sun coming through the trees. The point of view is showing the details of the tress. Have a nice day.

Hello John,
This is a great capture. The way the sunburst shines through the trees is perfect, and that shaft of light shining down on the forest floor is beautiful, too. This scene evokes a feeling of hope, and it is really lovely. Take care...

Hallo John,
We zien hier twee soorten zonnestralen:
de dikkere bundels zoals ze van achter de boomstammen naar de bodem neerdalen en de heel fijne en scherpe stralen onmiddellijk rondom de zon die door het gebladerte schijnt.
Op die wijze zag ik het nog niet eerder. Het is me alleszins zo nooit opgevallen.
Werkelijk prachtig !
Verder eveneens een geweldige bosfoto met donkere bladeren maar ook met een gedeelte van het gebladerte belicht door de zon in een mooie geel-groene kleur.
Uitstekend belicht ! Vermits de zon niet heel hoog staat, heb je deze foto vermoedelijk erg vroeg of vrij laat genomen.
Vele groeten, Paul

This one is a bit different from your recent photos. Nevertheless, it instantly made me curious: the lights are selling this photo, thanks to to your professional light-management. I added it to my favourite list.

Best Wishes,

Hallo John,
Prachtig hoe de zonnestralen door het gebladerte breken en een heel mooi gouden ochtendlicht werpen op het kalme bos. Fantastisch fotowerk met mooie kleuren ook.

Hi John
A great shot, very tranquil and great light. You've caught the effect of the sun through the trees well, its hard to find many places as photogenic as that. The sun adds a good finishing touch. Lovely shot

A lovely, almost mysterious image. You have captured the light through the trees perfectly.

emka (157280) 2020-08-17 0:07

Hello John, Wonderful view of the sun rays in the forest and the sun between the branches. I suppose the trees are beeches. There is a carpet of leaves on the ground. Fantastic composition.

Best regards MAlgo

Oh, this is beautiful!
You made a super exposure of the sunlight, splitting the shadows in this wooded area!
It is almost like a message from Heaven!

My warm regards,

jean113 (27637) 2020-08-17 7:03

Hello John, the rays of sunlight filtering through the trees is well captured, as it lights up the leaf litter on the ground.
The backlighting illuminates the green leaves.
Lovely work.
Kind regards, Jean.

Dag John,
Ik kan me zo voorstellen dat je hier nauwkeurig hebt gezocht naar precies het juiste plekje.
En het is duidelijk dat je dat hebt gevonden met dit geweldige resultaat als beloning.
Veel wind vandaag op voorlopig de laatste dag boven de 25° C
Goed weekend toegewenst, Groet Rob

Hello John,
Wow! it's so different from all the photos you have on TE. This is one of your best ...extraordinary. You've found heaven in St Annapark on your bike trip in the morning.
I could stare at this photos all day ...all my mind will be solely focused on the sun-ray beaming through the trees with the sense of pure calmness ......like I've found a piece of nirvana in me.
Thank you so much.
Loong

quovadis (5711) 2020-08-25 23:05

A superb capture, perfect timing, the sunlight looks like a bright star, beautifully spreading between the trees. An amazing visual effect, so blissful and hypnotizing. A pleasure to look at scene, thanks for sharing.
