Komorebi

In the post ‘Wald in ….what ?‘ there was a mention of word for the light effect through trees.

Komorebi (Japanese) ‘The sort of scattered, dappled light effect that happens when sunlight shines in through trees’

Here is a photograph that sort of aligns with that word which I found while browsing through my old photographs.

This was taken in Muir Woods during my first visit to U.S. Now when I look back at these photographs, ‘Dawn of the Planet of the Apes’ is what comes to my mind and I wonder if I missed seeing any of the apes jumping between the trees by any chance 😉 I should check it out next time I visit.
