Right side, sunlit. However, to me the colors are too faded. But I keep
trying to go by memory of this type of fern I always saw in the wild while
living in western Washington.
I found a gallery of fern photos and Royal Fern seems to be closest I saw
there to yours.

The color in the photo isn't as I recall it either though, far too
emerald-like. It's not easy to convey color in writing. If I were to say a
color that I think fits it would probably be like Forest Green or Green4 as
seen at:

Another pic of similar fern but also emerald-colored (to me):
