Pastels of Arrow River's Autumn

I made this image whilst trekking along the Arrow River.

I traipsed back and forth looking for a good spot to shoot other subjects, when I came upon this little clearing, under beautifully-filtered light, which made way for more shrubs, trees, and dead wood.

To my eye (and mind), there is an incredible depth to this image, which has been enhanced in a subtle fashion through post-processing (of which there wasn't much), but, I think it is mainly the bent tree, leading off into the clearing which creates the effect.

Let your eye wonder into each zone of the image; note the textures, shapes, and colours; then try to piece the whole scene together afterwards and imagine what I saw: the colours and texture tell the dreamy tale of autumn.

Slightly higher resolution found here.

Comments and critique are most welcome.

Regards,
Humayun
