This lovely green foliage was growing in a botanical and historical garden at Chankhanaab Marine Park in Cozumel, Mexico. I found these right after a nice rain shower.

Larry posted shots of the ruins here in the area where my photos were taken!

the second one almost looks like a map or something... very nice McMommy · 2010-12-09: 18:09
