A tree fern, growing against a brick wall in the Bishop's Palace Gardens, Chichester, West Sussex.

Taken on a recent woodland walk with my camera. Have an enjoyable Sunday!

Taken in mid October during a walk in some local woodland. This will be the last photo I post in 2022 (although I still have lots more taken this year to post yet)! I would like to thank everyone who has visited my photo stream over the past year, especially those who have commented and/or left a yellow star. Always appreciated and makes sharing worthwhile. I look forward to seeing all your photos in 2023 and I would like to wish you and your loved ones a very Happy and Healthy New Year :-))

From a dying fern in my garden.........photographed indoors in natural window light using a bit of green card as a background. Even in this deteriorating condition, I still think it's quite lovely.........and I like the symmetry as well.

I saw this in the Bishop's Palace Garden in Chichester, West Sussex yesterday. As well as the changing colours I really like the pattern the leaves make. Please try it large. Thanks for looking.

Fern spores are the tiny genetic bases for new plants. They are found contained in a casing, called sporangia, on the underside of the leaves. These are from a fern growing in my garden.

Taken in West Dean Gardens

Taken at West Dean gardens.

This clump of fern has not even started to turn brown yet, despite nearly every tree and plant nearby having done so.

Taken a week or so ago in our local bluebell woods.

I loved the shape of this - almost as if it was holding out it's wings to me! (.........or maybe I'm just losing it)!!
