“Its not easy being GREEN” –Kermit
Green is most commonly associated with growth and renewal in nature. But green has other connotations as well. One who does not feel well may be green around the gills. Someone who is jealous or envious may be green with envy or, as Shakespeare put it, a green-eyed monster. Serpents in folklore are often green. I could go on…
A few of my favorite green things…

18 Nov 2012Love the vibrant green in your photos. I especially like the expression on the frog’s face – he looks like he visited your favourite watering hole. Hehe.
fotograffer
19 Nov 2012Thank you AM. I hadn’t thought about it, but he does look quite content, doesn’t he?
