I've been away in the Washington rainforest with three girlfriends and just finished uploading my photos. I thought this one looked good in black & white so am sharing it for MM. We were staying in a cabin at the base of Mount Baker and one outing was to see Nooksack Falls. Surrounding the falls are thousands of very tall cedar and other evergreen trees and we had to wind our way through some quite narrow trails in order to get to the Falls. The dark forest was a tiny bit spooky and I would not want to go through here on a rainy day or in the twilight hours.

I liked this photo.
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing.
Great subject for monochrome.
ReplyDeleteLovely picture - real sense of dense forest.
ReplyDeleteReally good!
ReplyDeleteThat looks intriguing and makes me feel I want to go in further!
ReplyDeleteGreat photo!
Yes indeed, monochrome does give the bark clarity and denseness.
ReplyDeleteThe tree trunks look as if they are crowding in to any walk area! Quite dramatic and not a place I would wander at night either!
ReplyDeleteThe forest suddenly became unfriendly :-)
ReplyDeleteThat's a great shot. I love to go deep in the forest. After you mentioned the shapes in my shot, I looked for them and found them. I love comments that make me look at my photographs again and find new aspects I missed.
ReplyDeletebeautifully composed!
ReplyDeleteThe tall evergreens can be very spooky.
ReplyDeleteA very beautiful picture I love the contrasting tones.
ReplyDeleteLeslie, that photograph is incredible. There is so much depth of light and shadow, I would hardly call it monochrome, but a beautiful black and white photo -- which to me is quite different.
ReplyDeleteYou should frame this!
Gee thanks, Josie! Coming from you (an artiste) that's a wonderful compliment. :D
ReplyDeleteA very atmospheric shot here. How lovely to escape with a few good friends for a trip away from it all, I trust a fine time was had by all?
ReplyDeleteWelcome home!
I hope you had great time. I can't wait to see more photos.
