large old friends of the forest covered with moss and leiken - like old men with beards and cobwebs. Nice how the light picks up the yellowy limes. Mongo quite likes this Ron.

Trees are living creatures :)

Nicely done ... and, interestingly, it presents/resolves better on Flickr.

+1

Image has a sense of depth. I also like the light on the trees, gives the moss a velvety texture.

Lovely colors and textures. Is this NZ forest? On the left is a small tree with a very narrow trunk and long linear leaves, looks like a Lancewood/Horoeka (Pseudopanax crassifolius)

Yes, it's New Zealand, South Island.  Clicking on the image will take one to the flickr page where details are available.
