Geranium Leaves--Just a Quick Snap
Lens: HD Pentax DA 16-85mm Camera: K-70 Photo Location: Neighbor's Garden-Sac. ISO: 400 Shutter Speed: 1/6s Aperture: F6.7 
Posted By: angkymac, 02-21-2023, 07:37 PM

Just walking along and these leaves caught my eye.
Seemed nothing special as some geranium leaves, but yet they had "something" about them.
Just sharing a short surprise I had.

That's a worthwhile quick snap. Who would think that Geranium leaves could be so interesting and colorful. Love the patterns. Great catch.

Love the colors here. Definitely going to pay closer attention to our geraniums in the future.

Exactly, Mike! Who would think that of geranium leaves?
But there they were!
Thanks for the note!

And these weren't even flowering!
Just the leaves!
Thanks for noting it.

I hope you get some good shots of your geraniums.
(I don't usually photograph the geranium flowers--not too inspirational for me. But these leaves...)

A job very well done. At first glance I thought they were Kiwi fruit slices. Yumm! Well done and many thanks for posting.

Well, I do believe that kiwi fruit slices would have made a more delectable image than geranium leaves!
Thanks for the perspective.

for me it's just a matter of choice, leaves itself and flowers can be photographed separately, J do like geraniums very much, in spring-summertime J have plenty of geraniums in my own garden. A very nice detailed colored image Angky.

Thank you, Loris, for your note.
I'm surprised that the geranium leaves turned out so well; usually I do not expect the leaves to look nice, but these did.

Thank you much, Jer!
I have no idea how that array of color happened--as with others of pictures I get--they just seem to happen!
There it was staring right at me, and I nearly walked right on by it...!
But I'm glad you like it!

Uhhh... I'm not sure how it happened that you missed it...

But I almost didn't get it in the first place.
Walked right on by it, and then something caused me to come back to it.
So you weren't the only one who almost missed it!
I am glad you caught it and liked it, though.
