Self Critique
This image was from a trip to New Hampshire this fall. Sometimes when I like one of my images I tend to be blinded to some of the compositional problems or image processing techniques that an unbiased eye might see. I loved this spot from the minute I saw it and had so much fun watching it come to life during the processing stage.
Creative direction
As I have stated before I tend to gravitate toward darker images that convey a the sense that you have stumbled upon a hidden spot rarely seen by others.
Specific Feedback
All feedback welcome. Im always interested what people would do with the shutter speed if they were shooting this scene.
Technical Details
Canon R5 24-70 mm f/2.8

Description
I envisioned a trip from Wis to New Hampshire which would showcase the beautiful fall colors. As is often the case my time was not as planned. Very muted colors this year. Weather was cool in Oct. with nearly constant drizzle while I was there. The paths were very muddy and slick. Finally reaching this site was my final reward.
