Sunlight through the Trees

[MicroWyred]

I thought I would have a go at converting some images to B/W phtography. I took these a few years back but have just played with them.

What are your thoughts ?

No 1 is my kind of thing, that really appeals to me! I just love to see the sun's rays.

Very nice indeed, I really like the first one, the light on the main tree trunk on the right is superb.

Number 1 works for me, I am afraid I am not convinced about the spiders webs in #2

Re: Sunlight through the Trees

Number 1 for me too - a real classic!

Number one for me, though I'd be tempted to crop some off the top and make all the focus on the rays of light hitting the trunk and the floor. (feel free to ignore me)

Thank you one and all for looking and passing on your comments, very much appreciated.

DeeGee your advice is sound and cannot be ignored. I will have a play with your cropping suggestion.

First image is especially good. I have visions of a small silhouetted person on the path...Just my imagination. Really nicely framed.

Sandra - It would have been perfect if a deer had been present but there's always next time.
