I am so pleased to discover you stare at big green leaves like I do and see the beauty therein like I do. My wife just shakes her head in dismay and disbelief! ELO are on tour over here soon. I will now be hearing Mr Blue Sky in my head all day – on a grey day that is a real bonus.
Thanks, Andy. My wife doesn’t share my leafy vision either but she really likes the photos when they’re processed. Mr. Blue Sky is bound to be a hit all over again since it’s featured on a soundtrack to a movie being released this month.
Delicious greens! My significant other is polite and tolerant about my fondness for the abstract in nature, which is lucky I suppose, but I’m glad we have this community here where we can share the love and passion! 😉
Do you know Leaves and Plants? https://leavesandplants.wordpress.com/2017/05/08/318/
Thanks, Blue. I’ve been shooting trees and leaves (and other assorted plants) for years. At one time my portfolio was at least half of these subjects but it was enough to get me hired as a studio photographer.
Thanks for the link on Leaves and Plants. Some great stuff there. I just started to follow.

Man, I’ve not listened to ELO for a long time. Had a bunch of their CDs (all sold before we moved). Will have to hunt them down on YouTube now.
Thanks. And, yes, the photos are nice as well.
Thanks, E. I just saw that ELO was inducted to the R&R HOF this year. What took them so long?
The detail on the 3rd leaf is so beautiful.
Thanks, Ash. On this trip to the Conservatory, I only took the macro lens with me. It’s perfect for detail shot like this.
These shots are great. I also particularly love that third one. Great tune. Great band.
Thanks, Howard. Fortunately, it has a fairly flat surface and I didn’t have to resort to the stacking technique that you use so well.
Great images and cracking band elo magic music to make anyone smile
Thanks, SP. We’ve had so much rain I wanted to post something joyful.
