Abstract Leaf

Found this beauty pushing its way out of the ground today while I was at work. :)

(Viewing Large Works Well)

I downloaded an app to my tablet that turns it into a lightbox, then I laid a cabbage leaf over it, and photographed the result with my Canon IXUS

Held on a Nasturtium leaf. Pine trees are reflected.

Its a Leaf on the top of a red car. I loved the Reflexion.

with no colour adjustment, as usual. This bush leaf was hanging in my way along the trail, so I stopped and spent some time with it. It was a special encounter.

(I had started out on this trek simply to pick up the garbage I had seen along the trail yesterday (mostly from smokers and coffee drinkers....) and didn't want to carry a camera, but took my smallest pocket-sized one - and was very pleased I had.)

Leaf

It's just a leaf in sunlight...

based on a kite base again ! fold in one uncut square of lokta and banana paper in 25/25cm .

at first I want to make a lizard but when I see the possibilitie to change the tail and the legs in a leaf ... I think it's better like this ... it's possible to make toes perhaps for an other one !
