Difficult and easy

For me, some topics are hard to catch in a photograph, although I'm attracted to them. Forest is one such thing - on the scale of more than one detail but less than a complete forest (when details become patterns).

Here is a series of three photographs, of which the first is a photograph of the kind I would like to have the skills to catch properly. The second and third are "easy", more or less picking a colorful detail and blurring the rest of the image. But how to cope with subjects of the first kind, that is the question.
