The Tears of Ida Emi ( dew on a palm leaf )

This is one of a set of x3 images that I have brought together for a challenge in the new group “The Fibonacci Sequence”, and relates to Abstract Reality and the trunk of trees.
.
These are early morning droplets of Dew, floating on the thin bark of the sleeve of a Canary Island Palm Tree casing, which is found at the very inner end of the large frond.
It had been laying on the ground overnight after the tree had been removed.

    Watched the video, Larry. Absolutely brilliant – no other words for it. Thanks.

  • Larry Davis replied

    I was new to me, and it just seemed appropriate for the title.
    Thanks mate,

  • steppeland

    steppeland

    Awesome! You really have eye for texture and detail, Larry! Beautiful!

  • Larry Davis replied

    I just take it as I see it.
    And I don’t use photo shop.

  • Larry Davis replied

    But I do use hdr, and picasa3.

  • steppeland

    steppeland

    OK – well, I guess use of any of those is fine – In the end it’s the artist who decide in how far to change the essence/ colours/ sturctures, or rather to only enhance and light up what’s already there… I also like your approach, to stay close to the original and just enhance it :) – great work anyway! :)

  • Larry Davis replied

    Thanks mate.

  • Barbara Brown

    Barbara Brown
