Description

I found this fern on a pedestal in the Victorian garden at our first stop on the shoot. The sun was still low in the sky so I managed to catch it shining through the fern and highlight some strands of spider web. The fill flash came out a bit strong (had to use the on-camera flash since I didn't have my speedlight with me), but I like how it made the sky deep blue.
