[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
Taken inside Phipps Conservatory & Botanical Gardens, a Victorian greenhouse displaying plants and flowers from all over the world. It's usually quite crowded during the weekends, but I arrived exactly at opening time and had the entire place to myself for quite some time. Plus, it was a brilliant cloudless sunny day with the morning sun still low which created lots of wonderful light and shadows.

Sandy,
It looks like mango tree leaves. Nice composition with differente background.
Cheers,
Wellington

Bonjour Sandy.
La transparence obtenue par le choix de l’angle de la prise de vue est parfaite et donne une belle couleur à ce feuillage.
Bravo et merci du partage.
Bonne journée.
Urs

Hi Sandy

Good sharpness, with superb backlighting that gives most of the leaves, a wonderful, translucent quality. Excellent repetition, framing & shallow dof, with good light contrasts & exposure. Tfs!

Hi Sandy,
We have a very similar post today. I like your repitition here, nice strong backlight brings out all the intimate details of this plant well. Good natural coloring. TFS Julie

I like this kind of backlighting Sandy. Really nice colors, and detail visible on the leaves, and nice blurred background too.
Great eye to see this.
Have a good week.

dear Sandy,
very delicate and artistic picture of wonder natural leaves.
these pattern on leaves are very fine than ever patterns made by human,
and these shapes are never made by any computer graphics.
the natural art comes through this your shot to me.
thank you,
Akihisa
