Description
While capturing the sun in the forest, the rays and the lense caused a prisma in the bottom middle of the photo. I feel that this is art for itself.Related content

The rainbow adds a unique touch to the photo, however I'm finding that the sky and some of the trees are a bit over exposed, while parts of the photo are under exposed. It's difficult to shoot in situations with harsh shadows, because you'll either be losing part to over exposure or under exposure. And for some reason, the photo feels a bit crooked, tilted somehow. Maybe the angle you were standing when you took the photo, or the angle the trees are growing.

Thanks for your comment, cheslah.
I think that it was most probably the angle I were standing to take the photo. I wanted to include the bottom (fallen trees) but also the high standing trees nearby and the sun and even the little water where the fallen tree laid like a bridge. The rainbow might perhaps be caused by camera lense, sun and water reflection.
It is really difficult to capture all this everything scene in one photo

It's Commenting Month at CRPhotography !
You're right; the prisma and the sun look stunning; the lighting on the left side of the trees in the forest, those individual leaves, looks amazing
I don't know whether it's the angle of the photo, whether it was a bit skewed, if it's the tall trees that lilt to the left or the downed tree, but the horizon doesn't look completely straight. That's the only bit of constructive comment I can name

Thanks, Mouselemur. After having a closer look at the photography, I have noticed that you are right. I have not seen it at first sight. I think that it was my strange intention I had what needed to be in the photo and thus caused perhaps a strange angle.

It's not too distracting, but it's noticeable when you look at it a bit longer.
I find it sometimes hard to have all the aspects work together when I have this - in my head - awesome idea

Hello
Mybe it's not to important but I like rainbow effect here, looks nice
Light is a bit to bright but perspective not bad
It's always nice to see photo of forest to be closer to nature at cold days

Thank you so much, Shi. It is not always easy to cope with light in the forest. It is either too dark or too bright

I do believe this stands for itself as well. Without any man-made effects, sometimes it can surprise us, like the small rainbow prism. Forest shots are hard if you're just snapping random photos, as the sunlight from above can be too bright, but it's all part of the "forest" scene, so this is perfect.

I have always been drawn to forest scenes, both in light and at night. This image is very special for the prism of course, its strong colors in contrast to the sun-washed woods. I appreciate your composition - the variety of leaves and needles framing at each side, the sun itself obliterating all within its blinding mass. I'm not certain why, but my first emotional impression was to be taken back to my childhood.
