There are several scenic spots off the Nathez Trace that are good to shoot. This is one of my favorites.

F/4.5

Shirley, Your scene is inviting but seems a little dull, especially when compared to the right 4th of the image. I imagine that a curves adjustment layer might help things sparkle more and grab the viewer's attention.

Regards,

Carol

A very pleasant scene under some difficult lighting conditions, dappled light and all. I would try to tone down some of those very bright areas in post-processing.

Hi Shirley, when I first saw the thumbnail i thought, oh dear, this looks a bit overexposed. But then I clicked on the full image and the more I look at it, the more I think it works as is. It's kind of "artsy," sort of suggests a "high-key" image, thus makes me wonder how it would do if you posted it in the Photo Art gallery. The composition is lovely, and this is the sort of picture people would buy on greeting cards.
