50/50 day 20

I went to the Atlanta Botanical Gardens today to photograph the orchids. This isn't an orchid, but I liked the swirl in the leaf.

Oh really like the perspective and color. the spiral form is awesome. Great shot!

[Myrna Jacobs]

What a cool plant! Great shot! And I do love the spiral.

[Amanda Shay Permenter Garlow]

So strange to see this. Just today I saw begonias like this for the first time and was mesmerized by the spiral in them, much like the one in these. I almost bought them, but thought better... alas, I have a brown thumb, and would be doing them quite a disservice.

At first I thought these were pencil shavings. Haha. Great photo!

[Claudette Shelby]

This is a very pretty plant. I like the plants that have colorful leaves. Nice photo.

[weslyn hoekstra]

lovely. I like the focus and the monochrome feel (is this the natural color?).

[Jenn (Arlyah)]

Very pretty. I love how delicate it is.

[Lauren Dahlhauser]

beautiful....delicate is definitely the word to describe it.

[JR Cline]

Thanks so much everyone. Yess, weslyn, that is the natural color.

This was so enigmatic looking in the thumbnail, I was drawn to see it in a larger scale. A good choice to share with us from your day at the gardens!
