Super Swamp

The National Monument is pretty much in my backyard. Beautiful place.

I like how you framed the boardwalk and lead the viewer into the background around the cypress tree with the shot. Very nice composition.

In this case I am not sure about the exaggerated colors and shadows. Though I have to admit the leaf on the boardwalk foreground works nicely.

Thanks! No real exaggeration here with the exception of a B&W CP and a very wet environment. Makes for some eye-poppin' saturation. :D I did, purposefully, try and increase the contrast on the boardwalk. The moss it was covered in was a bit on the blah side because of the color of the wet wood. (Not really wood, either. I think it's that Trex decking material)

Been to Congaree many times, would love to have it closer as there is a lot there to shoot if you have time to explore the boardwalk. Great job.
