Woodland is difficult. I think you have done pretty well. The distaction is the the "brick" and dead branchest at the front. They could easily have removed, resulting, I think, in a really pleasing imge.

The light is potentially good here, but needs a little help. I would drop exposure on the foreground and reign back the radio-active green of the tree trunk a little. The sunlight coming through is back-lighting the ferns in the mid-ground and I'd look to warm and intensify their presence in the image. I'd probably also play with cropping out the bright right hand side of the image. The starburst from the sun works well as a focal point.

shot can be developed in may ways .. I was bracketing this scene but in the end I've gone with this version even with highlights blown out a bit on the right side .. in my opinion it adds a depth into a photography ... I am not necessarily fighting blown highlights every time, especially if photograph contains also blown shadows (not sure about terminology but you known what I mean - just blacks) .. here is original out of camera JPEG ..

but thank you very much to everybody for your comments ...
