Hi Janice

Gosh, I think I have seen this shot somewhere before. I think I can give it a better critique. Love the way the foreground frond overlaps the fronds underneath. The different angles make this an interesting shot. Nice different shades of green against a complimentary dark background. I think 'my friend' would give this 'Honours', I know I would! :-)

Hi Janice
Ferns are all around my village but no photo from them is in my file
Lovely themes that make me think my village.
Great green shot and I like The black in the BG too
See you

Great composition with ferns, Janice.
I like the slightly different tone of green of the top one.
My native place in the Himalayas is full of ferns, and I always thought they were rather dull subjects for a picture. Not anymore, thank you! :-)
Will be going back to India tomorrow and try my hand at it.
TFS.

Beautiful colors (well, mostly the dark green with one light green). Nice composition, not quite a traditional "pattern" shot, but a nice twist on it.

Hello Janice, You are offering us a festival of ferns this week :-). That's a good timing for me for I just planted 6 ferns in my garden 2 days ago! This picture is the best in my opinion of your fern series. The exposisure cannot be better for your can see all the different tones of green composing the foliage. The dark bg compliments so well the leaves too. Excellent composition and pov! Great job: I like it very much! TFS,

Michel

Everytime I see a fern I think of you Janice, and we have a LOT of ferns around here. I think you're the "queen" of the fern photos, at least I think so. The color here is so good, the dark background highlights the fern so well. Perfect focus and composition, well done. I'll have to give a "fern photo" a try one of these time I go on a hike.

This is a classic. It just has NZ written all over it, so common but so special. You've captured the colours and detail wonderfully.
