If you look closely you can see the leaf from my Plumeria plant.

Cool Re: Macro Challenge #7 - Leaves
Technically: cactus needles are leaves that have been modified through evolution, so here you go!

Oh; I almost forgot the little S95. Possibly the best point and shoot I have ever owned!

Yes, I was thinking the same thing but I have none in my garden. Nice photo.

Attached find a photo of some new sprouting leaves of the vine known as:
Vitis vinifera. I am told that this vine is known to produce eatable fruit.

Newbie here so I would like any comments on how to improve please these were shot with a canon D60 a 100mm macro and a 550 speedlite flash to fill shadows and daylight on top of a piece of white plastic sheeting.the file is not raw as i cannot change the settings at the moment due to lcd screen not working. I can get a closer image but did not like the visual image that I got.

Ah ha! This is just the place I was looking for! I had posted this picture in another thread, but I see this is the better place for it. I'm new here, so I'm still trying to find my way around.

Here's one of my shots. It's a shot of some canna leaves with evening side light. No photoshopping done here. Let me know what you all think!

Best post for me so far in this challenge. Love the sidelighting and subtle shadow detail.

Thanks, AfricanButterflies! Appreciate it! I just went to the Butterfly House in St. Louis, so your pictures are quite interesting, and lovely as well.
