The crispness of this image is amazing as are the details in the large version, Mike. I wish I had noticed this as this was exactly what I was looking for with the birches and grasses. The ferns make a wonderful FG BTW. Beautifully done brother.

I like the composition, the saturated colors, and the detail in the ferns. Very fine image.

The color jumps off the screen, Michael, but looks very natural. The birch trees in the bg add interest and nice depth to this lovely scene.

The luminance of the fore ferns makes this image jump off the screen, Michael. I could also see this with a crop to just below the brighter diagonal branch upper left. The grasses and birch trunks are a beautiful backdrop for the ferns. Really well done.

Wonderful scene with the ferns leading me into the image. I really like the green contrast between the ferns and back grass plus the splash of burnt orange in the ferns. Excellent shot, well seen and well done. The larger image looks great.

I heartily agree. You could also burn down that diagonal branch a bit.

A very inviting scene, Michael, with the nicely glowing fern (including seed heads) in the foreground and a great clump of birches in the back.

The ferns are gorgeous, I have the same thoughts as Gary regarding cropping off the top.
