Green, Brown, Blue: What Did Nature Show You?

Challenge #1 in the Colours & Shades: The World I Know series. Hosted by Stormcastle.

Challenge has finished

This challenge is for those of you who get out of the house... and get into the natural world, wherever it may be. The forest... the park... your backyard - wherever the world created by humans ends, and the world that was before us starts. Please refrain from submitting shots of pets or other domestic animals as they are no longer part of the natural order of things. Good luck!
