Peter, your backlit leaf shots make me nuts. I love them. Exotic or familiar, they are breathtaking.

Thank you H2S ! Ferns are such gratefull photographic subjects that I always enjoy working with. I especially enjoy their transparent leaf edges, when young, as the enhance the edge effect.

Hi Peter - this is a great image. Contrast strong and the subject tones are very delicate. What type of fern is this?

@kreeger Thank you for your comments ! This fern is called Nephrolepis, known in English as sword fern, fish-bone fern and the best known species is the Boston fern.

'Blue, Peter's work on leaves will hurt ya in the best of ways. When anyone notices a leaf detail, his gallery is where I go for examples of excellence.
