Light and Shade

A beam of light filtered through the trees, and lighting up the dew draped df for a minute or so..To be honest I did not know what to compose, and in the mean time the sun rose further and the df was in shadow again..

This has me thinking of a fairy flying past, Balan.  Without your description, I wasn't sure if there was a critter involved or if this was a tiny beam of light hitting the dew on a small branch/shrub.  There's a fine sense of mystery here.  I do think a 4x5 or square crop would look good.

I think Mark has hit on a good framing with the square frame. I like this very much as an abstract.
