Description
A densely vegetated area with a mixture of green plants and scattered organic debris. The ground is covered with dry sticks, twigs, and pieces of bark. Larger logs and tree trunks are visible among the undergrowth, with thick foliage and trees in the background. The lighting suggests partial shade, especially in the upper portion of the frame.
