I took this photo in the Leuvenum forest near Ermelo in the Veluwe. This forest was once planted to fix the drifting sand, you can still see that the trees were planted. It is a piece of coniferous forest in the Leuvenum forest, though. To make this photo, I took 3 photos with different exposures to merge into 1 well-exposed photo afterwards, making it an HDR. It was actually my intention to take this photo in black and white, but when I looked at the photo on my computer afterwards, I also like it in colour. I chose to take this photo standing up to emphasise the height of the trees. Of course, I also used a tripod to keep my camera stable, I also used a 35mm lens.
I also have a black-and-white version of this photo, the work code of this black-and-white photo is 1149149
