Description A path near Bussum in the Netherlands, showing those rather bleak colours of a March forest, while the sunlight is already strong. Soon it will turn it all into a sea of green!

As with most of the comments here I love the way the arching of the trees creates the impression of an endless tunnel through the forest. I just wonder could the image have been cropped at the edge of the small brown leafed tree on the right hand side as the archway is the focus

jchanders In reply to Dreggers [2007-01-17 21:04:36 +0000 UTC]

I see your point. Still I prefer this version as this shot does not just show that archway, but a path that cuts through the forest, having been lowered by walking and erosion, compared with the grounds on both sides. There is a meadow on the right, which creates some openness on that side. I like that contrast too, the closeness of the forest on the left and openness of the meadow on the right. I am quite a radical cropper at times, but this times I prefer it this way. Still many thanks for the suggestion.

you know what this reminds me of? where I lived the first 7 years of my life, we had a place on a hill called "Hasenrutsche" (Bunnyslide, for the english-speaking readers).
Your picture looks like one could fall in and slide down the path fun !!

Yes, with some snow and a sledge, this path should be fun.

Thanks a lot for putting this gallery of mine on watch. You know about the other two?
You find this path when you follow the cycling path from Trappenberg to Oud-Bussum. When go down the hill, it is a small path to the left, at the side of a meadow which you can see from the cycling path.

Beautiful...

Yes, it is a beautiful little path. And quite uncommon for the area here as it is cut into (low) sand hills. Thanks a lot for the fav.

So each of us has his or her preferences. Someone a few day called me "a master of the light". In my eyes that is the greatest praise that I can get. So not a master of darkness, but a master of light.

yep, you're the master of light, MOSREDNA is the master of darkness... and I'm the supreme master of you all, it seems clear to me!

It looks spooky perhaps, but it certainly is not. Suggestion does it once again. Great you like the shot.

I love this! The path looks as though it should lead to a beautiful enchanted garden or a clearing filled with old ruins. I love archways made of trees and vines and you have found a beautiful one and taken a wonderful shot of it. It's so wonderful!!
