Bellevue's Ferns

For my last Scenic Sunday entry of the year, here are some photos of ferns taken in Bellevue's Mercer-Slough Park back in May.
I loved the vibrant green of the ferns (not something we see in the dry climate where I live), and the sunlight in the second shot (not something we saw much of when we visited the Seattle and Vancouver area).

Beautiful green photos! I think ferns are one of my favorite plants! I always turn them over to see if they have spores :D

The sunlight on the ferns is fantastilc. Expecially knowing the picture came from the PNW! Happy New Year.

The weather was cold. Some parents are like that, then when the kids are sick with "noodles" running down their noses, and not wearing enough clothes, they still come to school.

Have a happy New Year.

in Borneo, we eat a lot of ferns.

Love the photos of these exuberant ferns! In Portuguese ferns means "samambaias".

Wishing you and your loved ones a Wonderful New Year full of peace, health and happiness.
My best wishes!

I like the vibrant green but I also liked your photo with the lightning. As for your photo showing the snow in your driveway – my! That makes me shiver just to look at it! Have a joyful New Year.

Ciao Al, I like both the ferns and I love the curl of the peaks that slowly opens to the light!
Peaceful and happy 2012 to you and your family!
