Love how the blue lilac dominates as it replaces the usual greenery. Congratulations on your top 20 finish.

This would make a fantastic art print.
I love the path leading into the woods lined with all the tall trees and beautiful flowers - it reminds me of childhood fairytales.

(Bluebells/wild hyacinths). Wonderful composition - the lines, the lines!- and delicious combination of blues and greens. Vive le printemps.

Strong image - I just wish the edited contrast of the trees was consistent down their length.

I think this is just about perfect. The light is wonderful and soft, and the composition, with its zig-zagging lines, leads my eye into all the corners of the picture.

What a striking photograph. You've really captured the vivid spring greens along with the darkness of the trees and the softness of the blues. Quite a magical place.

I love the layering and implied s-curve. I also like the symmetry and overall tone. Great composition too. The one grean leafed understory plant kinda distracts a little from an otherwise perfectly clean photo. Anyway, that isn't enough to bring the vote down below 10.

This looks like one of those stock background shots that come on computers. Great stuff. 9

magic - really nicely done - how's that for hard hitting commentary?

Another lovely view. This one has a little more emphasis on the greens compared to a recent entry. Well done!

Held back the best one did you? :) ==> . Of course it may not be yours (in the Landscape III challenge), but I like this one ("The blue forest") much better. The colors are deeper, the lines are stunning, and the lighting is less harsh. Perfect! 10

I recall a different version of this in previous contest. I have to say I actually preferred teh first version. The popped greens are pretty, but the photo no longer has the same aura of mystery.
