Thank you for all your nice comments. The original is just a normal photograph but this was my first attempt at IR., of course I didn't have the hardware for this so I messed around in Photoshop till I got this effect which is somehow quite close. I always wanted to put a faery in the wood but so far I havent been lucky enough to see one

Looks like a a badly messed-up exposure that turned out to be an enchanting abstract piece, Penelope. Maybe it didn't happen that way at all, but, in any case, it's very pretty and very "you".

Gorgeous. Perfect title for this; they look like they're guarding the way to some faerie land.

"Enchanted" is a good description of this wooded area, Penelope. The spots of light coming through the trees makes it look as though there are possibly faeries resting in the treetops. Is this an IR image or did you apply a treatment of some sort?---Deb
