Beautiful capture. The moisture on the plant life enriches the colors in the natural lighting.

I like that you chose to shoot the slope of the hill, it gives more drama to the sun rays.

Opps. I meant redwood forest. Typing on a tiny iPod Touch is challenging.

Stunning picture!
Could you, please share, what settings you used and whether you have had to touch it up in Photoshop, if it’s not a secret?

Wonderful photo–wish I could smell it. John Muir said, “Come to the woods, for here is rest.” This picture illustrates that perfectly.
