Walking on a forest’s or woodland’s floor often yields a great deal of visual delight, as most living humans have directly experienced.
However, relatively few humans have experienced the pleasure of looking down to a forest’s floor, from forest canopy height, or higher.
The view from “up there” is usually a visual treat in its own right.
In recent decades – across a growing number of nations – the construction of elevated walkways has made that experience newly/readily-accessible to millions.
(such walkways also spare tree roots from the potentially-lethal impact of too-many tourists’ feet compacting the relevant soil)
The very same forest looks astonishingly different, when one’s feet are more than 20 metres above the ground.
