HONORABLE MENTIONS (5% each of this post’s SBD)
@akinome
“ The light always finds its way ..walk in a forest close to my home Thurgau in Switzerland”
@jayclar
“ This photo was taken up in the mountain of Mount Glorious in QLD, Australia. It was a cold and wet day which was perfect, the rain had brought out the colours in the trunks of the gum trees and the clouds were sitting on the top of the mountain making it look all misty and foggy.”
@dmytrokorol
“ We had been walking in the woods of Saxon Switzerland that pretty cloudy day. It was raining all the way. We were at the border of the forest when suddenly sun appeared through the clouds, sending the last rays. Everything was illuminated in the woods. The light reflecting from the wet trunks created the mystic atmosphere. I was enchanted.”
@yblith
“ Shot on a hike through the forest during the morning hours. Fog was pretty apparent and the sun was not really coming through. The atmosphere really reminded me of some x-files episodes”
@leodang
“ The lonely grass.This photo was taken in my school yard. Sometime, the beautiful thing appears around you in an unexpected way.”
@scottshots
“ Bonsai Rock usually gets all the attention at this popular Lake Tahoe photo location. But this time, the tree on the sidelines got the spotlight.”
@fjorenca
“ A coconut tree forest in El Nido, Philippines. Watching the locals effortlessly climb to the top of these trees to get the coconuts is quite a show!”
