The compositions of this photo is really what makes this so great. It's the first think I notice and it keeps my attention. Your overall color tonality is nice, giving the image a dream like perfection. The halo that looks like is being created by the mist contributes to that "faded memory" feeling and it's antique photo attributes also add to the dreaminess without it looking overworked. I am a little iffy on the highlights in the trees, it gives it a little bit of an HDR look, which isn't horrible, it just seems to be right on the verge of too much. Similarly, your vignette is very apparent, but in this case I think it works wonderfully! I also want to point out the fading trees in the center of the piece, they add just the right amount of depth to the photo, keeping it from seeming flat and stagnant. Altogether this is a wonderful photo with a unique perspective and a simplistic composition! Well done!

This was so very kind of you to do for me. I do not get many critiques and greatly appreciate them. The only way to get better is to learn what I'm doing incorrectly and what other people think. I tried not to over process this and I know exactly what you mean with the highlights in the trees. This is not an HDR and that bothers me too. I have tried to correct it but it will take more work than I have time for at the moment. And also with the vignette, I agree needs work. This will get the revisit in the future. Thank you so much again.

Excellent framing and tonal processing; the hues in the scene evoke a deep, dark narrative with an appropriate sense of mystery.

Thank you so much for your thoughts, they really help. This image is part of the series I'm working on. This land is a deep tribal forest.
