Baby ferns, I call them. One of my favourite things to photograph on rainforest walks are ferns in that stage before they become their fully fledged selves. I get much pleasure out of their delicate little fractal curled-ness. And just before they flare out into the bright green-fingered leaves as we know them, they look like flying butterflies with yellow edged wings.
These pictures were taken on the walks we did at the Hawaii Volcanoes National Park.

This is a real neat series. Thanks.
Thank you. I’m pleased with it too, especially as I find nature photography somewhat challenging !
