Great & awesome images of forest scene. Would you tell me how you get that kind of effect of your wooded images?

Hello Lester, I like going out in overcast and even rain to avoid the harsh shadowing. Shooting Canon systems for years, this is a 16-35L Lens with a polarizer filter. I always shoot with a tripod mount, in live view so the mirror is up, and use a remote switch. I actually enjoy hitting right after a rain as it makes the foliage pop along with the polarizer filter. Hoping for no breeze, but generally its not too bad in the thick rainforest on this wonderful Island where I live. I find shooting in A/V mode, with an F-stop of 16, hyperfocus, and allow the shutter to sit around 1/4 second. I prefer using a low ISO setting, mostly around 160, and I always shoot in RAW. I hope that helps in some manner, always open for questions.
