Chris, I think I get what you're saying. The light is what interested me in this shot. However, in this image, the light is not the center of interest. The chosen framing and subject do little to enhance the light. In fact, much of the shot is in shadow. Since I was truly after the light and not really the forest, I should have focused on the light in the foreground or in one of the trees. Thank you for your insight. I originally wasn't going to post this image, but I'm glad I did because I have learned something from it.
