Gentle Opening

I was at a friend's house for wine and cheese after work, and I had a wander around her garden taking photos. Took a photo of another NZ Blueberry far darker than yesterdays one and thought I'd blip that as a contrast, but then I came across some beautiful roses and decided on them, then I found the artichokes gone beautifully to seed, then .... However, they all were cast aside when I found a fern fronding very late in the season.

I do so love emerging fern fronds - not that you could tell from the number of times I blip them or anything!
