Thank you to everyone.
Chris - I've read your book.
Michelle, I've seen your portfolio before while browsing this site and I really admire your work.
I painted the trees with just a few brushstrokes as I wanted to keep that area full of light and use it as a way to start a flow of light down through the rest of the picture. The setting was also carpeted with leaves and I wanted to find a balance between detail in the foreground subjects and background.
