Lovely. I have one of those ferns (2nd and 3rd pictures from the end) in my front garden. The leaves are quite battered, but suddenly it has lots of new ones waiting to unfurl. My mind has gone blank as to what it's called.
ReplyDeleteIt's Asplenium scolopendrium - harts tongue fern CJ Are the tatty leaves last year's growth as I always cut that off in spiong
DeleteI haven't got any ferns but now we have paid more attention to the front garden, one or two might appear. They look lovely as they're unfurling don't they x
ReplyDeleteThe do throw out amazing shapes when shooting into new growth, Jo. I love ferns - there is such a variety to choose from
DeleteTaking photos in the dark gives an entirely different perspective - looks almost like an alien landscape.
ReplyDeleteIt was tricky to see what I was pointing at Margaret :)
DeleteBig fan of ferns, they are very useful plants. They happily out grow terrible slug damage, there are lots of sizes & leaf shapes, and there is a variety for all types of growing conditions.
ReplyDeleteMe too SandD I never tire of them
DeleteDavid Ford would be proud of your use of the flash technique, Sue!
ReplyDeleteMy inspiration, Mark
DeleteThey look really great. I think I'll be wandering the plots after dark (when the weather warms up a bit)
ReplyDeleteI bet our neighbours were wondering what all the flashing was about, Belinda
DeleteThe flash really gives a different look to the plants doesn't it? Very pretty.
ReplyDeleteIt does especially as there is no background to distragt, Daphne
DeleteGreat photos! Ferns make for an interesting photo shoot, great looking plants.
ReplyDeleteThey do Kelli
DeleteAlthough I've never grown ferns I think they're fascinating plants. Taking photos of them in the dark gives them a whole new persepctive. I especially like that second to last photo, it looks like something from another world.
ReplyDeleteFor some reason that one reminds me of cobras rearing up, Jo
DeleteI just love all those fronds, how very magical and inspiring.xxx
ReplyDeleteI find them to be fascinating, Dina
DeleteFerns! They look really awesome in the photos! I do have few of them in the pot! They make a good collection!
