This is good Ben. The beauty here is very subtle and perhaps not everyone will recognize it. It doesn’t have that processed look either. I guess that’s what I like about it. It feel real, as in genuine. Beauty without makeup. Don’t know what to suggest. Clone out the little yellow flower? Make this a bit even more cooler? This is really good seeing. I guess you’ve photographed these forests for so long that you’re seeing the less obvious aspects of them. ---

What a great eye to catch this beauty, Ben. Yes, it feels like a dance. Wonderful composition and lighting. ---

Love how the movement of the trees has so much energy and the feeling of fun, but also definitely dancing, @Ben_van_der_Sande. Very nicely done. ---

You’re right, the trees do look like they’re dancing. Well seen and photographed. I like the green tint the image has, it’s rather calming! ---

Very nice capture Ben. My only suggestion would be to burn down the light area of the central tree. Your selection of trees has a nice rhythm. ---

Yes, dancing indeed! I think @Eva_McDermott has a good idea about the very white area – just a little more detail there could be nice. ---

Ben, you sure know how to make these trees dance, I saw the same theme in your last post. I agree with @Eva_McDermott comments, you have a great sense of rhythm in the composition and I would also burn down the center tree’s highlights. ---

@Ed_McGuirk , @Eva_McDermott , @Tom_Nevesely , @Vanessa_Hill , @linda_mellor , @David_Bostock , @Diane_Miller , Thank you all for your attention and comments . Based on your suggestions I made a rework and burned down the light area of the central tree. (Thank you Eva). I myself find it also better this way. ![reworka](https://images.naturephotographers.network/original/3X/6/0/605316193035277184f3a5485513943b55426c51.jpeg)
