History Forest Drongengoed.
The Drongengoedbos is the largest contiguous forest in East Flanders. The central part of the forest is located on a cliff, the so-called Meetjesland cuesta, with the highest point at 29 meters above sea level.
The substrate consists of an impervious clay layer with a very thin layer of sand and is less suitable for agriculture. Owing to excessive wood usage, therefore, an enormous inhospitable area of habitation has taken place. During the mining of these wastes, two abbeys were active and the last pieces were only recruited in the 19th century.

Hi John
A peaceful country road with wonderful diminishing linear perspective with the wheel tracks, and the changing colors of the trees and shrubs to their Autumn finery. Good sharpness and framing. Tfs!

Hello John,
An image from your archive, yet a very contemporary one. The track makes an excellent lead-line extending towards the vanishing point. Nicely exposed with an agreeable blend of autumn colours and very good sharpness.

Dobar dan, gospodine.
Interesantan i lep pogled, dobar tekst ...
Lepo pokazan put koji nas vodi tamo daleko u nepoznato i drvece, dobar kontrast i ostrina, lepe boje.
Lepo drvece u jesen i boje lisca.
Dobar tekst o koriscenoj tehnici i elementima snimka.
Zelim vam lepo popodne, sve najbolje.
Paja.

Hallo John,
De herfstfoto's zijn toch vaak wel het mooist om te zien dankzij de kleurrijke bomen en het warme, laagstaande zonlicht. De herfstkleuren vermengen zich hier ook al mooi met het groen. Een mooie foto uit het bos, de compositie is ook uitstekend met het pad links van het midden.

Bonsoir, cher ami JOhn,
Au Thιβtre du Sous-bois, derriθre le rideau des arbres, le pic-vert frappe les trois coups.
Jolie composition qui donne envie de suivre le chemin pour dιcouvrir le charme des arbres aux feuilles colorιes par l'automne.
Amitiιs.

Hi John,
The length of the road is giving depth and perspective to the composition. The point of view is showing the details of the trees with the fall colors. The light is giving nice tints to the colors. Have a nice day.

Hallo John,
Mooi weer in de herfst is ideaal om prachtige bosfoto's te nemen.
Aan de sporen op de weg te zien, komt er hier soms echter wel zwaarder verkeer langs.
De verschillende tinten van het gebladerte vormen een mooi kleurenpalet.
Vele groeten, Paul

Hello John,
What a straight path through the forest! The fall foliage around the leading lines and the little dot of light at the end of the tunnel of trees are beautiful features.

Hello John,
Autumn from a few years ago was just beginning to show the changes in leaf colours, moving from greens to reddish browns.
I like the soft, dappled light through the trees, brightening different parts of the leaf cover.
The path, long and straight, is a no-nonsense guide and also helps to create the sense of perspective.
Have a lovely day,
Bev :-)

Hello John,
I like the narrowing lines of green and brown of the road and the surrounding grass, cutting straight through the forest and disappearing in the dark background. The road is surrounded by the trees wearing all kinds of shifting colours of autumn. It's a neat and well balanced composition in your characteristic style.
Kind regards,
Gert

Hi John
Looks like a cool nature for a walk when abundant of good autumnal colours lends this a nice feeling of tranquility. Superbly framed by the receding lines dragging the eye into the whole depth and I especially love the dappled of warm light as an added bonus there. Lovely take, Congrats.
Best regards

Hi dear John
As I was out for several days, you post several stunning shots, ths one is also so eye-cathing.
This is your signitured image shot, so artstic and poetic, full of implications. Significant Autumn color touch is very impressive too.
All the best and have a good day! Takero

Autumn colors in the rural forest road, wonderfully shown on photo with the side light that enhanced its warm tones, John.
A simple yet a fine picture.
Have a nice weekend,
Ike
