A dark place. The forest can be a place of tranquility, but also a place of fear and the unknown. I have tried to capture the later.

This photo was taken in a woods on Grange sideroad in Caledon, Ontario. This effect was created by panning vertically quickly during the exposure.

The photo was then coverted to B&W using the blue channel in CS2. I adjusted the curves, cropped out one distraction and this was the result.

Excellent work. You have created a very eerie feel. Excellent colors. Kind of reminds of an illustration in a scary kids book.

TFS,
