Description

God has cared for these trees, saved them from drought, disease, avalanches, and a thousand tempests and floods. But he cannot save them from fools.
--John Muir

Forest path in mid-October when fall colors were at their peak. A stark reminder that nature is not ours to destroy but to preserve, this Kane County Forest Preserve plays a small role in reminding us that we have a responsibility to the land. Johnson's Mound is located in Elburn, Illinois (USA).

I processed the raw image file using Photomatix Pro 5, filters from Topaz Labs including Detail 3 and DeJPEG 4 as well as some minor tweaking in Photoshop including sCurve adjustments, brightness, saturation and the camera raw filter to produce this hdr image.

I donate 25% of the profits from the sale of this image to PROJECT ZERO: The Project to End Prostate Cancer in order to help develop better detection, prevention and a cure for this killer of males around the world.
