Dreamy Green by olivetreeann

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.
This is beautiful, Ann. Looks like "soft Christmas colors!" Great job!!

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.

@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

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