Secret Garden

[Rebel]

This shot was taken on Monday but only just got round to processing it earlier... I think it was Natalie from another thread who gave me the idea for the title

A wonderfully enchanting scene. Love the color.

Nicely done.

Very nice Matt, what a beautiful place!

[Rebel]

Thanks all

Like the processing on this one Matt. It is a beautiful image.

It looks like a magical place...beautiful processing and all. Must be the angle of the shot that makes my eyes looks like the image is tipping to the right a bit...

Hi Matt . I like the PP work a lot and of course a very nice composition

[NorthernFocus]

Another excellent image, Matt. And a good lesson to us all on breaking rules/convention when called for. Classic thought would be to have the water flowing into the frame. But the content to left of the stream warrants placement and direction of the water. Really nicely done.

I have to say that you have developed a styear that is particularly well suited to the subject matter. The level of saturation that you use gives a surreal feel which really suites the geography. I really enjoy your posts and have learned to open my mind a bit. Thanks for sharing.

Nice Matt. Like the light on the leaves in front.

[Wavelength]

What a perfect landscape!!!! very very fascinating!!!!

[DigitalScape]

Fantastic image, Matt. This would look great printed large and framed.

Thanks for viewing/commenting all.

Thanks Dan, I process my images to my personal taste/preference... if it looks good to me, I'm happy and its great when other people enjoy them to

Matt, you or Natalie did it again, following on the the heels of the Teddy Bears' Picnic:

From my childhood:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Secret_Garden

Was also on TV years ago in England . .

Great processing, BTW.

Stunning! Just love that foreground!

[Mike Buckley]

The foreground makes me feel like an elf that wants to skip and hop across the rocks over to the stream.
