Maidenhair Fern
The Olympic National Park is great habitat for many types of fern. One of my favorites is the Maidenhair Fern. A nice mix of delicate and elegant.

There is a foot bridge over a small gully in the Bloedel Reserve that provides a wonderful opportunity for shooting directly down on plants such as these ferns. It provides just a slightly different perspective than the usual.
