Ohhh....perfect! :)
Love the alternation of the greys with the autumn's colors!
And wonderful the horizontal branch...adds dynamic energy to an already great shot! (thumbup) (thumbup) (thumbup)
FORGOT: the idea of the inverted filter is very original and works wonderfully!

This is beautiful. My only comments are that it seems a little dark at the top. The trees have a nice green color on their trunks (moss?) that seems to dissappear in the grayness towards the top. Personally, I would like to see more of the green.

Your photos are so inspiring.

Great photo highlighted by the differences between the autumn colors of the leaves and the darkness of the road and tree trunks. The fog helps the mood of the shot. Well done as always Robert!

I completely agree with GFXartist sponsor Jie, you are an awesome photograper. This looks like you've stepped into some fantasy world and taken a portrait of the world there. Something about this picture has hit a nerve. The atmosphere is wonderful. Colours are excellent. Mood is stunning. The haze in amongst the trees is perfect. I really have no negative comments whatsoever. This picture makes me gasp!

Be proud of yourself, Robert! Well done!

Goodness, this looks unreal. Before I realised it was in the photography section, I thought it was an extremely well-done 3D render, perhaps with painted elements.
Fantastic capture. =)

Wonderful!
I like this one better than The Hermitage because you feel so alone in this one. Personally, I like the way the picture grows darker towards the top because it provides a sense of shelter - makes me feel more alone. :)

Avatar gandhisan

Why cant California look like that. I see you used the grey filters and used one upside down. Now being an amateur photographer I dont really know what a grey filter does and the benefit of using one and another upside down. Can anyone elaborate? Trying to figure out what it did in the composition.

You sir are a genius.

i can smell the damp air. having had the great fortune of spending a little time in the czech countyside, let me say how evocative of those days this little slice is. beautiful handling of the medium.
