STAINED GLASS WINDOW LEAF: HAPPY MACRO MONDAY



My wife found this beautiful leaf off of an ornamental pear tree. It was being blown around on the street along with ugly brown leaves. When you hold most leaves up to strong light, they have the look of a stained glass window. Happy Macro Monday.

    What a terrific find! Most people wouldn't have even noticed it. Glad your wife did! From the first photo, I had initially thought you did some editing.

    Glad you like the jolly and grumpy dragonflies. I invite you to check out by other blog today to play the caption game. http://onenezz.blogspot.com/

    The colors are so pretty. I often hold up a leaf to the light to see the designs that wouldn't be as noticeable.
