Translucent Green
Ever since a photography teacher named Paul Johnson taught me years ago to look for back lit or side lit objects against dark backgrounds, I go looking for things like this. One of the nice things about November is that the sun is much lower in the sky, and the opportunity for natural lighting like this is much greater. I saw this beautiful plant at the San Diego Zoo's Safari Park.
Other pictures taken at Safari Park are here. www.flickr.com/photos/9422878@N08/sets/72157628351207247/...
Other pictures that I've taken of leaves can be seen in my Leaves album. www.flickr.com/photos/9422878@N08/sets/72157649845311287/
This looks decent when viewed large. Press "L" to see it that way.
