Description:

Oregon, forest light at sunrise in the Willamette National Forest. Sunlight streaming through old growth forest.
I've always liked the way light bounces around in forests, like this example in an old growth area of the Willamette National Forest of west Oregon. It's very hard to get just right because the light changes quickly and the very high contrast has to be dealt with. It's precisely these factors though that can give an image that deep forest appeal, calm and very quiet.
