Larrybenedict's Fotothing

I'm calling this "Más Verde". Walking through the woods/yard/garden two or three days ago, I noticed ferns growing on the trunk/base of this old Gum Tree that I had not noticed before all the rain gave everything in the plant kingdom a big drink of water. The moss was so green and pretty. Of course a photograph can not capture nature in all its glory. The fern is growing on the North side of the tree and you can see that moss also grows on the West side too.....disproving the old tale that moss always grows on the north side of things (rocks, trees, hillsides, etc.)
Look closely in the leaves and pine needles and you can see where an Armadillo was digging for Earthworms the night before.
I like this photo in the largest size because I like looking at things with big magnifing glasses. Even though this is not a Macro photo, you can see things in the photo that you will miss in the "Big Picture". Leaves and sticks and the Moss Forest up close...fern leaves too! OK, I confess that I'm a little Nutty and childlike sometimes.
In the words of Elizabeth Barrett Browning; "The Earth is crammed with Heaven and every common bush is alive with God, but only those who see take off their shoes."
