It Only Takes a Moment or Step to Start the Story We Call Life… (Congaree National Park) by Mark Stevens Via Flickr: There was definitely something magical about walking this boarded walk in Congaree National Park! The tall cypress trees all around, sunlight coming from above and a nice coolness still in the air with spring temperatures.

Nature is Presenting a Blockbuster, Showing for All Who Are Interested! (Congaree National Park) by Mark Stevens Via Flickr: A forested setting with bald cypress trees and knees while walking the Boardwalk Loop Trail. Light from the morning sun helped to add to the vibrant colors present. I was able to add to that by working with color control and control points to adjust saturation, contrast and brightness in Capture NX2.

The Undergrowth and Life in the Congaree Floodplain (Congaree National Park) by Mark Stevens Via Flickr: A forested setting that captured my attention with the variety of plantlike present, including palmetto leaves. Anywho, there was lots of greens across this floodplain landscape.
