For the Macro Monday challenge "Leaf" (August 30th 2021)

Some leaves just get more beautiful as they die and dry - changing colour, becoming translucent and curling into lovely shapes. This one reminded me of a croissant! 😊

The portion of the leaf here almost fills the 3" size limit!

HMM!! and have a lovely week ahead!

It is funny - despite how much I say, I find it so hard to put words together sometimes. It has taken me over an hour to write 18 words. It is hard to string thoughts together and put them into words.

Did you know that one in every eight letters written is an E, making it the most common letter in the English language?

On a rainy day

I'm not gonna lie folks, I feel like I've lost my mojo. I'm having a hard time finding beauty in the mundane, which was always something I enjoyed. In an effort to fix that, I took my 100mm macro out for a spin. Because we all know that nothing challenges a photographer like a completely different perspective.

(I think I've been too in love with my 35mm, and that's why the 100mm macro was such a huge shift.)

A simple twist
