Help!!
I've taken this shot a few times and played around with it. Every time I walk past I think 'there's a great picture there'. This is the best I've got so far (IMO). I like the natural chaos, the monochrome-ish lighting and the highlights on the moss etc, but it doesn't quite work. Any help, criticism or ideas?

Its hard to find a focal point so you need to work on light and dynamics, fog, sunrise etc.

I have quite a lot of similar images, always look good when standing there but I struggle to make them into anything interesting.

I doubt you are going to get a picture there that will appeal to anybody else. Most people don't like chaotic images. That being the case, you will be taking it for yourself so you will have to be guided by your own taste, in effect (IMO) you are asking for opinions on how to make the scene look good to you.

BTW, don't use Thumbsnap, get yourself a Flickr account like everybody else who posts here, your pictures will look better just for that alone.
