Ok, here's another. I fell in love with these unfurling ferns!

It's gold, Jerry. Gold!

(you Seinfeld fans will get that one)

Seriously, this is my favorite from your recent close-up work.

I love how you got both together - one in focus and one not. Great vision.

I've always wondered how to compose a good shot with these beautiful spring fern heads.

Now you've done it!

Figures a bluegrass fiend like you would be drawn to "fiddle heads".

I just LOVE fiddleheads and this one is extremely well done! It is hard to get all of the detail. The composition just sings with one so sharp and the other out of focus -- you have a good eye!
