Histogram seems a little on the dark side.

Thanks Alan. Adobe RGB vs sRGB won't have any noticeable affect on the image histogram.

The image is purposefully somewhat dark, which matches my recollection of the conditions at the time. Bear in mind this was fairly late on an overcast day in October, and also the subject is in a heavily wooded gorge. Viewing it on a white background doesn't help though. Better to view it fullscreen on black.

Edison, that's superb.

Lovely, Gabe.

I'm kind of with Alan, but it is up to you to render the scene as you see fit.

Great composition - I know from personal experience that photographing groups of trees is NOT like shooting fish in a barrel, although it seems it should be...

Thanks both.

In the cold light of day I realised you guys were right. It was too dark. That's what happens when you edit late at night when you're tired. I've replaced the original with a half stop brighter version.
