As a flower lover I have long since found it curious that my favorite things to spot in the forest are green. Ferns in particular draw me like nothing else. I remember spending a summer in Vermont one year and discovering a fern forest unlike any I had ever seen. In the center was an enormous boulder which I crawled up on and sat for hours enjoying the silent speech of sunlight and trees.
In my years as a wedding florist many events stand out but I love the images from this one shot in 2006, only two months after little Lola was born. She was curled up in a snuggle pouch as I worked.
The standout fauna, a fern curl. Otherwise known as a Uhule, or Dicranopteris linearis. It is the new growth of a giant fern found in Hawaii. I look forward to that walk someday......
