Hello everyone. Not posted a pic for a bit due to work, so here is one. I saw this fern growing out of an old wall that must have been there since the war years. I just thought it was fascinating how they grow through bricks. I tried to show the brickwork texture because it is so old. Hope you all like and thanks for taking a look.

I love the green in the midst of all that red. Also the symbolism of earth and urban in one shot. Seems like it's saying that the Earth will always win. Very nice.

Jake, the color of the fern against the brick is really nice and, the brick's texture came out great. Thanks for sharing it mate. Great work.

Such simple beauty. It says a great about you, Jake, that you have eyes to be sensitive to a scene like this, seeing both the beauty and the emotional appeal. It is a lovely photo!

LOL that plant is a tenacious little bugger, isn't it!
This was a wonderful find - the softness and green against the hard red bricks makes for a wonderful mix of textures and colors! Really nice, Jake.

Jake, well done! One of the beauties of photography and a place to share is that I get to see things I normally wouldn't. Thanks for sharing. Good idea to include more of the brick. I love its texture
