Ben,

This is lovely. The light is delicate and delightful. I can imagine someone, or a couple enjoying a picnic lunch on the green grass. I like the square presentation as well.

I don’t mind the bright patches in the background so much. My only small wish would be for a little more room for the base of tree on the left. Not a whole lot of structure or presence for that tree, but it does a good job in helping frame the composition.

This works well Ben. The light spilling into the scene is a real addition to the great color.

Pleasant scene. I like the light and the composition. The trunks feel a bit abnormally green, though. Are they really mossy making them this color?

Tony  
Thank you for this good critique .And thank you for giving me some work on this rainy day !  
If I look at my calibrated Eizo monitor I see not to much green in the trunks. If I look on my iMac at the uploaded image then there is an overal green color cast. When I look at it on the Eizo then the color cast has gone. Maybe I like color and light too much. Again Thank you Tony !
