Description
I love gardens filled with luscious green ferns. I love the feathery elegance they display covering hillsides beneath tall trees or covering forest floors. They sway with gentle breezes and give off a feeling of grace. . . . and I really love looking at them through the macro lens of my camera . . . such delicate beauty and pattern. Nature is truly amazing whether you look at a large expanse or a tiny element. This Earth is such a gift!
Celebration
by Denise Levertov
Brilliant, this day โ a young virtuoso of a day.
Morning shadow cut by sharpest scissors,
deft hands.
And every prodigy of green โ
whether it's ferns or lichens or needles
or impatient points of buds on spindly bushes โ
greener than ever before.
And the way the conifers
hold new cones to the light for the blessing,
a festive right, and sing the oceanic chant the wind
transcribes for them!
A day that shines in the cold
like a first-prize brass band swinging along
the street
of a coal-dusty village, wholly at odds
with the claims of reasonable gloom.

Thank you so much for looking at my images. I appreciate that very much.
I am very concerned with our environment and have decided to donate any money I make from any sales of this image to the ENVIRONMENTAL DEFENSE FUND.....because the Earth needs a good lawyer! We all need to speak up and support efforts to protect our environment. We will not get a second chance!

Wow, that's an amazing pattern you found there -- strange to find something so orderly in nature. Very beautiful shades of green as well!
