Fiddlehead Ferns - Tanger Wildflower Path

Yesterday my daughter, Cinda, and the grandkids arrived about 6 PM.  Forgot about posting my image from the Tanger Garden.  The wildflower path has quite a few wildflowers blooming.  Was disappointed that there were no bloodroot blooms as wanted to try a better close up.  Instead I captured a fiddle head.  Would like to get one with the macro lens, but I had Jack's iPhone and they are specific to the model. and I have the 5s.  I cropped and sharpened the image in PSE 11.  I did remove some woodland debris, but there still some there with pine needles and leaves.

Trillium cuneatum CU @ the Bog Garden NLT

Went to the Bog Garden a few days ago because John Neal, a member of the NCNPS - Triad Chapter,  had posted an email about trilliums and trout lilies being in bloom on the Nell Lewis Trail last week.   This is a Triullium cuneatum and the only cultivar I saw blooming in the bog garden area.  This has a very nice burgandy colored bloom.  Sometimes the bloom is more brown than burgandy. I will post the trout lily images as a separate blog entry.  Editing was done in PSE 11: used sliiders for shadows, highlights, and midtones, sharpening, and cropping. It was taken with HDR mode about 4 PM, and lighting was overcast but I did not change the WB setting.  I used iPhone 5C with native camera app.
