Very interesting structure of these fronds. Your eye for form and structure comes through again. Somehow all the blend of sharp and blur, light and dark is splendid.

An usual beautiful photo of an unusual beautiful fern, for me. This image stirs the fantasy: extraterrestrials, seahorses, lamps in the for ... ? Just splendid in its simplicity and effectiveness. I love it, Gary.
Take care.

Good eye to see these as mimicing the gondolas! Excellent use of lines and dof.

I don't know why, but I thought of Violin when I opened this frame, Gary - fantastic plane of focus for that edge throughout its evolution in the frame. A slightly more uniform tone in the background might have made this even better in my opinion.
