Backlit Fern


	Backlit Fern This fern was in deep shade; except one frond standing upright, which was receiving a patch of direct morning sun through an opening in the nearby privacy fence. It had such a glow to it, as I walked through the shady part of the garden, it really leapt out. Chris Budny
	Orig for fern I didn't like the "square" lines of the patch of light coming through the fence opening, so I cropped for only the sunlit areas. Chris Budny

Nothing beats the repeated patterns of a fern frond -- lovely lighting and details, Chris.
