Many times I find these two types of vegetation growing together. And they happen to be similar to each other. Ferns do not produce flowers, but instead produce spores they drop from the under side of their leaves. Just like mushrooms drop their spores from under the caps.

These are Sword Ferns, a very common type of wild Fern seen throughout North Georgia. The dead foliage can be seen as a dark brown, and the live parts are a bright white.
When a tree dies, mushrooms move into the wood and start breaking down the trunk of the tree. Fruiting bodies can be seen on the trunk, looks like the tree snapped in half, leaving a tall tree trunk.
Eventually the tree trunk will fall and other plants and animals will make use of it. Though that may take many years to happen naturally.
The trail is just wide enough for one person to walk single file. The plants are trying to take back the pathway, sometimes trees falling blocking the path.
Some ferns will grow at the base of trees, some other saplings are growing as well probably Cypress or Cedar trees coming up. A couple Pine saplings can be seen as well.
A big mushroom formed at by some dead wood and then fell over, looks like something checked it out before leaving it to the side.

I take pictures with a special camera. Its a Mirrorless DSLR that has been modified by Life Pixel to see light in other wavelengths. This allows my camera to see light in the Infrared [IR] around 1300 NM wavelength, through the visual spectrum and into the Ultraviolet A and B wavelengths roughly into the 300 NM wavelength.
I carry many filters on me to make the photos you see in my blog, these filters screw on my lens and help me isolate certain wavelengths for certain scenes. These filters can be IR / UV pass-through filters to assist me get a natural photo taking out the UV and IR light. Or I may use a Infrared pass-through filter capture just IR light. I can do the same with UV light as well, though I need some better filters which they can cost a few hundred dollars for true Ultraviolet pass through filters. So for right now I have B + W 403 bandpass filters that still allow some IR light in, due to their cheaper material.
There are also exotic glasses made of sapphire and germanium I am open to working with to replace my silica glass hot mirror with a material that allows even longer wavelengths of infrared to enter my cameras sensor. Special sensors, lenses and filters of that material would be needed as well, so it would be a big project but one that may give some even more unique photography results.
