Lush

If you saw my last post you probably understand that I loooove ferns. ;-) They are absolutely wonderful subjects!!

This is taken during a day of fairly heavy rain, in between of two rain showers. The rain water made the lush greens really pop.

Beautiful subject Håkon. I like the image very much as posted but you might emphasize the subject more by cropping from the top to 5:4 aspect ration. Love the greens and richness in this as well as the wide angle view.

Even better than the fern, I like the path leading the eye into the distance.

Cheers,

The colours seem almost mystical.. I like the composition. If I would hang this on my wall I would want to step into it. It looks very refreshing!
