Many thanks Michael. It was the contrasts and sunlight that attracted me to this, so glad it came through. Dixie, thank you. You are the tree and woodland expert! Rikke, many thanks. Heather, yes it was muddy- very! I just managed to avoid ending on my backside! Denise, thank you so much.

In the photo I liked the dark tones of the trees with sun dappled through, and the reflections in the muddy puddles.
