Macro Friday - Leaf

As we were leaving a local park this past weekend I picked up this large leaf.  The afternoon sun was quite bright so I held it up and snapped the pic just for fun. 


I love the color and texure, and the way the sun is peaking through the small hole.  There is such beauty in nature - even a leaf that is just lying on the ground.


I zoomed in and came up with this macro for today's post over at Blogging from Bolivia

Have a great Friday and a wonderful weekend!

  2. Beautiful macro and color! I picked up some large ones similar to this the other day, put them in the back of my pickup, and forgot they were there. Needless to say, they didn't look good enough by the time I remembered to photo! ♥
