Well, since two of you have done it, I'll bother: it's Cyrtomium.
I do wish I could persuade my canmera to take photos like that .

I miss macro
Not sure why I'm chimming in. My point and shoot has had a broken LCD for months..making macro shots impossible and when I do zoom in-its all guessing if its centered or if it's clear now.
I guess I even more appreciate great shots since It takes a lot of luck for me to take a good one.
The store I bought it at went out of business.

Placed it in my pocket on 20 minute drive..that's all the pressure it took. Sitting 20 minutes. I never meet anybody who doesn't do the same. All I can figure is that my Canon 590 has an oversized LCD,making it more vulnerable. On a bigger camera,I wouldnt have been able to pocket it.
Most likely I will wait to get another camera unless this can be repaired dirt cheap.

Spring is springing all around here with warmish temps of 16 C/ 61F with thunder storms and torrential rain over night things are starting to look quite spectacular.
Trochodendron aralioides though slow growing it having multiple growth points should look good.
A few woodies as I like to call them are putting in an apperance.
and where I thought I had a bare patch of bare soil all these goodies show up do'nt you just love springtime.
Had to remove some of this growing all over the place but not an invasive weed as this is Paris polyphylla a very nice problem to have though growing in the lawn it is not.
Does anyone know if I slice this up will I get loads of plants and if so why is it so dam expensive.
