Another Leaf Fract

My final leaf fract using my folding lawn chair set-up. I actually have another set-up that I use, but did not have it with me at the time. I have a couple of those really cheap plastic standup picture frames that I have cut a rectangular hole in the center. All you have to do is place a leaf inside the frame and position the section you want to shoot over the hole. Voila, a perfect set-up held flat and not affected by windy conditions.

Look forward to comments.

Killer set up idea. I love the colors, the effect, and the details. I wish that you have pointed the lens down a bit as I wanna see the whole intersection....

Andrew, ditto Artie, nice colors and the fracting is awesome. I love your recent blog post- lots of cool fracts!:S3:

Hi Andrew;

Artie and Denise nailed my one critique...I wish you had lowered your framing a bit so as to include the entirety of the intersection, and perhaps a bit of the leaf below it...other than that, another wonderful macro of a leaf's structure. It never ceases to amaze me...the beauty that is literally right at our feet...if we just take the time to look.

Thanks Denise, Arthur and John, much appreciated. There wasn't much to work with beneath what is seen in here. I too wanted more. If I have the time I'll see what I can find around my home as I have about 20 very large Silver Maples that are yet to change color. If anyone would like to help me rake all those leaves just drop me a line.:S3:

I can't help you rake the leaves but would be glad to photograph the perfect one when you find it.... signed: the little red hen

Wow! That fract filter really brought out the lines. I can almost feel the life inside the leaf! Great shot!

Thanks Bob, much appreciated.

Arthur, love the reply - the little red hen was one of my daughter's favorite bedtime stories.
