The monochrome simplifies that. And I wanted badly to convey the order in chaos of being immersed in the diversity and depth of branches, trunks and leaves. It is indeed difficult to capture.

I couldn't say it better myself. I think the woods is one of my favorite nature locations, but getting a worthy photo is very difficult. I think Fletch is on to something.

Any one composition usually lacks a subject on which to focus and is chaotic. I think that's what is best about being out there however. With all the diversity, chaos, and lack of focus in the forest, the mind is freed from trying to impose it's own law and order. It just has to go with the flow.
