Beautiful

Believe or not, this is the leaf of a Poinsietta plant that should be long gone, but seems to have revived itself out on my deck!

Nature is surely the best painter - what a beautiful leaf!

@httpgeffed Thanks Colleen!
@beachradish Thanks Beachradish! It's a Poinsietta that's revived itself on the deck.
@karenann I am a firm believer of that Karenann! When I started this project last year, my car died. For about a month the only place I could shoot was in my home or around my home, unless someone took me out! Thanks!

May 2nd, 2012  
pretty neat, isn't it? on those two droplets in the upper right, there's a reflection; would that be you? :-) wonderful shot, ann.

I have a couple poinsettias that are nearing 20 and every time they start to turn yellow and lose leaves I water them with aquarium water and they turn deep green and thrive. The ones I saw by the south china sea were tree sized. I never get much red however

@digitalrn Thanks Rick! So glad you did- loved the flag!!
@dmariewms Thank you Marie! lol
@ulpiphotos Thanks Ulpi!
@melorac Thank you Carole!
@alia_801 Thanks Alia!
@sangwann Thanks Dione!
@groovygirlrn Thank you very much Sheri! Glad you stopped by.
@summerfield Thanks Vikki- I'm not sure. I'm thinking it's not because of the angle I shot this from but it could be one of the chairs on the deck.
@pandorasecho Thanks Dixie- wow tree-sized? I didn't realize they could grow that big! There is definitely more green on the leaves at this point than red, but this leaf had such a nice gradation on it.

Thanks to all- now I'm off to search for today's color!
May 2nd, 2012
