Ferns in the Rain

We bought our house back in September of 1970. There is a steep bank in front of the house, and it was covered with brown vegetation after a hot summer. I didn't pay any attention to it at the time. But the next Spring, the bank exploded into brilliant bright green, as the fiddleheads of new ferns pushed their way up through the dead remains of last year's ferns. It was rainy today, and in the rain, colors are more brilliant than in bright sunshine. So I grabbed the camera and went searching in the fern bank for something interesting. I photographed the green ferns against brown, and then found this, with the green against the new green grass. I think the monochromatic version is more striking, so here it is! (And it looks dull green, so please click on it.)
