When I see this superb shot, I can imagine that we have the same woods in the Alps but then the swampy nature of the soil tells a different story…

Well done again, Richard.

+1. Beautiful light, and one can feel some of the humidity.

Thank you Russ, Eric, Francois, and Rajan.

What resembles a green mossy ground cover is actually a small plant floating on water that's a foot deep, or more. It's why they call a swamp a flooded forest. And it accounts in part for the heavy humid air that swamps are famous for.

I wonder if PS will create an app for virtual humidity ?

Take good care.

Richard
