There is nothing like walking on a pathway through a forest. While looking at your photo...I am there.

Location
Hi guys. This one of my favourites. I was really chuffed the other week when a photographer friend of mine saw this come upon my screensaver and thought it was stock from somewhere. I took it in a place called Sidwood where I have been walking my dogs regularly over the last ten years.Time
It was early afternoonLighting
What makes this shot is the perfect natural light. The sunlight highlighting the trees and path adding depth.Equipment
I took this with my trust old Canon 5D mk2Inspiration
My inspiration was simply the breathtaking beauty nature presented me with in a very familiar landscape. I love being in the woods miles from anyone. It relaxes me and allows me to feel at peace.Editing
I did a quick wash of the original through Lightroom to add a slight vignette but otherwise nature painted the pictureIn my camera bag
I like to take the minimum of kit with me and usually just carry the camera and a spare battery.Feedback
This was opportunistic and the only advice I can give under these circumstances is to keep your camera with you even when you are gong to very familiar places. You never know when the elements will be kind xx
