Description
In the dark shadow of a mountainside cliff ... under a thick canopy of black spruce and poplar ... there is a place where the sun touches the forest floor for only moments a day.Yet, in the face of such odds, gentle life flourishes. As the new ferns arrive, their fiddle-head tops unfurl and reach for the elusive light.

So beautiful! They look so gentle and delicate. Love how the light shines through them and makes them pop out of the darkness! Could be a dark fairytale forest where elves grow luminous plants to light the way ;]

I like this one a lot, there's just something about the natural state of things that you can never capture in paintings, that's why I love photography so much, and luv, you do an awesome job. Very VERY nice deviation, its amazing

and since there were no comments on the 'Walking in Your Footsteps' I wanted to compliment you on that one as well. I love the idea behind it and the fact that you dedicated it to your father is very sweet Very good photography is the photography that means something, and you always seem to have that. Fantastic job
