Dreamy Green

I took a picture of this plant back in the summer, but at that time I shot it in sepia (see May 15 of my Themes and Competitions Album). Today as I got out of the car, I saw it again and was struck by how soft and lovely its green leaves looked against the brown leaves which had fallen from the trees.

@karenann Thanks Karenann- yes it does look a little Christmasy.
@kerristephens Thanks Kerri!
@dmariewms Thanks Marie
@digitalrn Thanks Rick- I think the green is actually what drew my eye to the plant.
@bkbinthecity Thanks bkb!

The curious shapes of the leaves and the contrasting colors make this photo very interesting and draw the eye in. I think it's a beautiful shot.

Pretty patterns in the plant - I can feel the fuzzy leaves.

[Carole Imes]

The colors are so warm and such a beautiful shot!

[Ann H. LeFevre]

@myautofocuslife Thank you Livia!
@alia_801 Thank you Alia!
@cimes1 Thank you Carole!

Thanks to all- this shot has really grown on me! At first I thought it was a quick shot to accomplish the "shot for the day" but it's one of those natural things that is so beautiful just as it is that you keep going back to look at it again and again.

It has a frosty look to it... Very nice

[Ann H. LeFevre]

@prttblues Thanks Bev! It does, but I took it at 3:30 pm (or thereabouts)- so no frost at that time.
