I took this photo on the Staverden estate near Ermelo in the Veluwe. I don't know if this strip of grass is also a path, it is not paved like the rest of the paths on the estate. On the left of the photo and in the background, you can see flowering rhododendrons. tucked away in the background, you can still see a piece of a watermill. This photo is an HDR photo consisting of 5 photos with different exposures, the difference between light and dark was a bit too big under the foliage. When I took the photos for this HDR, it was still spring, you can see that the green on the trees is still fresh. The trees that you see are beech trees. This strip of grass between the trees and rhododendrons does add depth to this photo.
