It was pouring cats and dogs for quite a while before it stopped just for a bit for me to be able to see this house amidst fog and greenery.

Canon 7D + Canon 18-135 with polarizer.

You really need to look at the larger image to do this justice. From the thumbnail I almost did not open it. I am glad I did. Fine image. I like the mood in this image. The fog really adds to the mood and the house adds interest and stands out nicely amid the greenery.

Wonderful rain forest scene. I'd love to spend a month wondering from this hideaway.

The red roof of the house contrasts so well with the greens of the forest. The cloud and the palm tree tell identify this as a rain forest. Great job of telling a story with a picture.

The mist adds some wonderful atmosphere Keshav. I also like the sense of scale created by the small hide away and the surrounding forest

As mentioned by Mark, nice atmosphere created by the cloud. Coconut tree adds to this. TFS... :toast:

Beautiful image. I might consider bringing down the reds just a touch, but it's really nice as presented. Well done. :toast:

Thank you everyone for the comments and critique.

@Richard: You can see an even bigger version here at my website: http://ifornature.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/06/House-in-Nature.jpg

@Bruce: Thanks. I did try toning the red down, but it didn't really represent the scene as I saw it. May be I need to try just enough and not over do it.

@Tony and Soubhik: This is shot in the Southern Indian state of Karnataka (about 400 kms from Bangalore) at Jog Falls (India's highest waterfall)

I concur with the other fine comments. The larger version really is impressive. Well done. I really like the placement in the top left.
