Return to the Tranquil Canopy

Following a stormy morning, I headed out in the afternoon to a local park to see what possibilities were available to me. I saw this small seldom used path with the sun beaming through at the far end of the path before it goes into the deeper part of the woodland. I had to capture this image with all the crags of branches leaning out over the path forming a tranquil canopy for those that would walk this way.

This is a color version of the same image I posted previously as a black and white image. I made this version specifically for Earth Day wanting to make it feel soft and ethereal overall. Giving this a special type of beauty on its own. The soft green and brown tones are just inviting you to look down the path where the sun was lighting up the setup of trees in the back section of this image.
