Oh these are lovely.
As someone who can't do backgrounds, I always am really amazed by people who can make them look so nice!
Love the cool hues and how you handle fog/atmosphere.
Love it! I imagine all manner of creepy avians living on those woods!
Ahh the background is a must! This is the main thing I look at as the background tells most of the story.
I would not portray it better myself!I definitely agree, especially as a writer, I find that either the atmosphere from a image or by a description can make or break the mood of a story, or the feeling you're trying to portray.
