Artist's Comments

The ridges in the foreground are the remains of daffodil farming that took place on the island in the 1800's. The flowers were then exported to places like Covent Garden in London. The last private owner of the island insisted that the island be returned to nature, trees grew up and the paths became overgrown so that only the areas closest to the landing point were still acessible. Nature was allowed to reclaim the open fields.

how did you get the details to be so sharp? small aperture, post processing, manual blending...?

I used a small aperture but I also sharpened in ps afterwards. I actually find this over sharp for my taste these days :)

The uneven ground here gives me a sense of walking over a miniature landscape; hills and valleys, avenues and corners, it's like an entire topography under your feet. Combined with the starkly-delineated borders where the bushes in the background haven't reclaimed ground, it feels like a city or town, like a Giant's-eye view of Tolkien's Shire.

I love how you manage to catch the exceptionally brightly-lit foliage even against the shadowed background of the tree trunks - that brilliance where you might expect subdued lighting really is wonderful.
