ENTRY DESCRIPTION
I captured this image on a rainy October day in the woodlands of Trossachs National Park, Scotland. After driving down a back road, I simply pulled the car off to the side and decided to take a walk with my camera through a particularly dense area of woodlands. As I walked, I stumbled across a set of moss-covered trees that I thought were unusual and stopped to capture this image using a super-zoom lens. Halloween was fast approaching and I thought the image was particularly haunting, especially in black and white.
