Good photo Marylynn. I keep wavering though between whether I like it or not. I find it somewhat disturbing.

Maybe the trees on the right are encroaching the path too much?? It was a beautiful day after a fun evening at En El Camino, so I had only good, happy feelings as I walked that morning toward Fromista. Sometimes I find it hard to separate the emotional experience that I have when I take a photograph from the photograph itself, so I'm never sure how it is being received by someone else.

That would be part of it. But also the low light brings a gloom and those trees are leaning like a wall that is ready to collapse upon you. And it is so unnatural with so much on the right and nothing on the left. What also looks unnatural is the perspective of the road, it funnels in way too quickly like it is baiting you into danger.

As I've written before I really like your photographs and this one too. I just am unsure I like the emotion this one engenders.

Thanks! I appreciate your comments - and I can now see the photo from your point of view.

Interesting comments. We all see different things don't we.
I actually like the symmetry of the leaning trees and the grass verge on the right. Like 'leading lines'.

And the light in the distance, feels like a 'new dawn'......
