Every time the forest is with his forms and shapes inviting to come in and explore . As with this gate of almost golden leaves.

I like the graceful sloping diagonal of the tree branch combined with the vertical BG trunks. Beautiful lighting also.
I love this. My only nit is the choice of shutter speed. Ideally, I’d like to see all leaves sharp? It could be just me though.
@Michael_Lowe, @Adhika_Lie, thank you both for these fine comments. Here I learned to give more attention to the shutterspeed. It isn’t a habit to give attention to all the camera settings. Therefore it was a top tip Adhika.
Beautiful image Ben. I think Adhika makes a strong point here. You had some wind to deal with and with a slow shutter speed you got quite a bit of leaf movement. Not a deal breaker for me but something to think about. I love the diagonal branch coursing through the frame and how the brown leaves on the ground contrast nicely with the warm and vibrant yellow and green leaves.
