After reading an article about taking photos in the forest with hard light,
I decided to go to a nearby (small) open beech forest with long lanes (Netherlands).
The results were disappointing and on the way back I saw this long lane with extreme light differences and I immediately decided that this had to be a black and white photo.
This was new to me, since I rarely/never produce black and white pictures and then only in post-processing (after the color version is bad).
I decided to do the black and white conversion in Lightroom instead of Photoshop,
and used the "camera monochrome with deep color tones" picture profile as a basis.

In post processing (my camerasetup excludes any picture enhancements) I had to do some cropping and cleaning up to make it more serene.
