JURASSIC

What I show you here, is my most favourite spot/mini woodland at our place in Upper Austria. I visit it at least once every occasion that we are there.
Bracken, twisted beech trees, firs and birches, you will find them all at this place. The last time we were here I wanted to have a look especially at the bracken and see how far they are in their process of emerging and growth. I only went there with a little bit of exploration in mind, but liked this particular scene so much, that I went back to the car and got my photo gear to take some shots of it.

This time I also enjoyed the editing process more than usual and invested some time in Photoshop apart from Lightroom. I also chose a little different approach than usual - or lets say I went back to my roots and chose a darker and muted touch than lately.

By the way: most of the techniques used for the postprocessing of this image are also described in my Processing Tutorial Video.
