Juneau, Alaska, USA. Those who live in the Northwest, know that large portions of the region are temperate rainforest. In the panhandle of Alaska, the Tongass National Forest is the size of the combination of the New England states. Receiving over 120 inches of rainfall per year, the moss grows freely over everything. The large flat leaves are of the Devil's Club plant, one that has medicinal value. Enjoy!

Peter Lik himself could not have done a better job and he is my photography hero.

Life is not about waiting for the storm to pass, it's about learning to dance in the rain

Welcome to the NW! We have moss growing out of our ears! This reminds me a lot of the Olympic Rain forest in Washington State. Very stunning and beautiful!

The reason why the sun sets in the evening is because it wants to see the sunrise in the morning. I rise in the morning because I want to see them both. RvdB
Ooo it looks very lush and dank and verdant :) I love the almostly limey green colour of the moss and the contrast it has with those very bright green leaves.

He who dwells in the shelter of the Most High will rest in the shadow of the almighty. I will say of the Lord, "He is my refuge and my fortress, my God in whom i trust". Psalm 91: 1 and 2
Looks dark and scary. Excellent capture with all the deep colors.

What a great entry this would have been for the recent green contest - really lush.

"What a desolate place would be a world without a flower!
It would be a face without a smile, a feast without a welcome." A.J. Balfour
What, in the US, isn't the size of all the NE states or bigger, other than Hawaii, NJ and Delaware? lol Such a tangle of fallen trees and mosses and oh so beautiful in greens, yellows and browns. So many textures too. Have to check out Devil's Club.

LYTRO. The new light field photography. Refocus your shots AFTER you have taken them. Just click on the word LYTRO. See a VIDEO HERE.
It looks like a place you could get lost in the blink of an eye Thad. Good post.

Cameras are like people--sometimes they lose focus.
What a beautiful jungle. That flat horizontal leaved plant is absolutely great add to this scene.

This looks very much like the forests we have around here. I love the moss, it makes everything look so soft and smooth.

A wonderful sight Thad and an excellent photo.
It is almost 3 dimensional and the large laves appear to be floating.

My thanks to all who leave comments for my work and to those of you who like one enough to make it a favourite. To touch just one person that way makes each image worthwhile. . . . . . . . . .. . . .

A lush and lovely scene, Thad. Love the details in the growth. Beautiful colours and textures.

The difference between a bad artist and a good one is: the bad artist seems to copy a great deal; the good one really does. ~William Blake
