The sun shining into the wintery forest always appeals to me. But I could never get it into a proper picture – until I exposed on the lights, which lead to underexposing the whole by two stops.

empire of lights 
I’ve had the same issue, maybe I will try a little underexposure too.
Very nice!
There are two pictures, but if there were only one, I’d like how the wall would separate the dark side (right picture) from the light side (left picture)…
It’s really well done 🙂
Interestiong idea. I can see what you mean … thank you for dropping by and leaving a comment.
I was taught that a great b&w runs from the darkest black to the whitest white in a single photo. You have done it with lots of visual interest in between.
Thank you so much … I do share this opinion, especially when it comes to the darker areas.
Thank you all for your comments! It is always exciting to learn what people see in pictures, so thanks again for stopping by and leaving your opinion.
The light in the forest is a wonderful contrast, and it gives the shot a certain mood. Nice!
Yeah, high contrast is always my favourite. Bright light from a sun that’s relatively low to the clear sky horizon (morning/evening) is the most appreciated whereas others prefer diffused light throughout a cloudy day.
I love the contrast, the black and white, drama..:)
Great photos! I almost feel as though I’m there they feel so real.
