Lensbaby Love Blog Circle: June


Every year I look forward to the unfolding ferns that fill our woods.
This month I've used my Lensbaby to document their amazing form.






From tightly curled, to exuberant curves and beyond,
ferns are infinitely beautiful and fascinating.


















Next, please follow the link in our Lensbaby Love Blog Circle
 to the inspiring work of Celeste Pavlik
 of Everyday Photo Bliss.
Enjoy!

  7. Ferns are indeed gorgeous as they unfold. Your photos do them great justice. I especially love 3 and 4 and 7, 8 and 9... though all of them are beautifully captured!
    I hope you are having a lovely summer, Anna. It has become exceedingly hot here after my return from England and gorgeously cooler temperatures!

  8. These are so ethereal and beautiful. I grew up with "bracken fern" at Girl Scout Camp, love your images and such detail. We cooked fiddleheads in butter and thought it tasted like popcorn! Thank you for the wonderful memories your images reminded me of!
