Fern at sunset

On my afternoon walk in the village today, I captured this sunsetting photo of the fern that grows in abundance in our village. This fern has many uses in our village, one of them is a source of greens that we usually eat at big feasts with protein such as pig in big boiler pots. We also cream this fern with coconut cream and chicken and it's a really great meal. It just looks so beautiful as sun was setting so I took the shot and saved it into my phone.
