Missed the first one whilst we were away. Excellent atmospheric captures, Derek, the composition on this one is excellent with the low pov and diagonal aspect. The green tones and misty trees give a 'lovely' feeling of quietitude and spookiness which I remember from a field trip there 30 odd years ago.

You've captured the atmosphere of this wonderful ancient woodland extremely well Derek - the mist and damp conditions really bring out the eeriness of the place and your choice of low viewpoint emphasises the mossy boulders well. Having attempted several times to photograph this location I know how hard it is to do - I've certainly never come away with anything as good as this Smile

Its not the easiest place to stand up let alone photograph Anna. An atmosphere all its own though.

Although I haven't been there, I've seen this location on tv and I can image how difficult it must be to get a good shot. Very well done Derek - you've got a great composition and captured the spookiness of this place so well!

If the trolls come for you there you can't run away so hope for the best that you didn't interrupt any spooky goings on.
Wonderful detail Derek.
