Vegetation
Lens: DA* 16-50 Camera: K20D Photo Location: Cost Rica 
Posted By: daacon, 03-08-2011, 06:21 AM

We stopped at a place called Coco Loco. This was a local art shop that sold mask, carvings, all kinds of sculptures.



After about 5 minutes of looking (and some of it was impressive) - I wandered about the area as I knew the girls would be in there for a while. Again I was soo impressed with how thick the forest was and all kinds of different flowers and vegetation.










Not much of a shot here but I wanted to show the ground. The soil is so rich and conditions are so condusive to growth even the forest floor was beaming with life.

How interesting to be able to view the native vegetation and flora. I would probably get lost just wandering around to see what is different around the next tree stand. thanks for sharing this beautiful place. Bob
