These photographs rely on the distinct texture of the foreground to create continuity. This occurs as the eye is drawn up and along the ripples or waves in the wood which occupy the foreground. In eliminating the rays of light which shone through the branches in some earlier photographs, the focus shifts to the foreground. The change in lighting affects not only the audience's focus, but the focus of the camera as well. With the removal of more stark or contrasting lighting, the foreground becomes much more easily and naturally studied.
