Spring Fern
Spring brings all kinds out of the woodwork :biggrin:
A recent trip to the Smokies that included Alice Scoggins and Cindy Nowlin was pretty fruitful and bearful :eek:
I found this small scene at our first "pull over" along Tremont.
In response to feedback from Cindy and Alice I cloned out a brown leaf from the original.
Canon 400D XTI,28-135mm,1 sec @f9,circ.poarizer

Great shot! Simple and well done. The angles of the fern couldn't have been placed better.
