The photo shows a dark, shadowy part of the Shunan Zhuhai National Park in Sichuan, China. The bamboo forest here has a mysterious atmosphere due to the lack of direct sunlight, creating a deep, almost silent aura. In the foreground are ferns, which grow in abundance and cover the forest floor with their large, green leaves. The ferns provide a dense understory of plants in the forest.
Some thin bamboo stalks grow among the ferns, reaching straight up into the dark sky above the canopy. The bamboos almost seem to blend into their surroundings, with their smooth, green stems difficult to distinguish through the shady forest. This combination of ferns and bamboo gives the photo a nice contrast between the low, wide-spreading ferns and the tall, slender bamboo plants.
Shunan Zhuhai National Park is known for its extensive bamboo forests, but this photo also shows how other plant species, such as ferns, are part of the area's rich botanical life. The dark tones of the photo emphasise the tranquillity and depth of the forest, where nature grows undisturbed and builds up in layers, from the soil to the tops of the bamboo.
