Warm Summer's Glow

I drove out to the wildlife preserve this evening after work, and as I entered this one road, I loved how the light was coming in through the trees. I used a light sepia tone and a softening effect on the image, and I liked the results.

I like using sepia with big contrasts in light! It is softening here to give an enchanted look really!

Right out of a story book!! Love the soft glow, beautiful shot.

Lovely...........light is such a wonderful thing - transforms moments and days, and no special places look the same from one moment / day to the next!

[CAT Carter]

I can feel the warm glow just eminating off of this, fav!

It does look extremely hot from the looks of it. Great processing and tones.

I have often enjoyed the nuances of dappled light but could never figure out how to make it a good photo. Your processing has done just that.

[Suzie Townsend]

It is hard to get the light right when the sun is coming through trees. You did an awesome job!

[Pat Knowles]

I do like sepia, not as harsh as black & white! Stunning light.

Reminds me of a dirt lane in the town where my mom grew up. Well, it was not a town. She grew up in a holler in Kentucky...and was close to a tiny town.
