It is nature’s way to be in a constant state of change…..whether obvious or subtle…each day a new cycle begins…and with every beginning there must be some form of an ending.
This is another grouping of leaves in my abstract leaf series. At the end of Autumn, many leaves have fallen from trees affording me the opportunity to see them from from a different perspective. Using my Macro lens, I could focus on the vivid colors, textures and designs of one of nature’s most beautiful creations. I enhanced the colors to highlight the intricate designs of each piece to see the various juxtapositions creating artistic compositions. Many of the photographs of leaves were taken on a rainy day that added great lighting to see the clarity of these vibrant leaves. I believe using nature’s materials offers stunning abstracts that are most majestic in their elemental form. I use bark, rocks, flowers, plants, and other natural creations of nature to create abstracts and representational photographs. To enjoy the full detail, these photographs are best seen in the larger format. There are many interesting images in this abstract including some unusual beasts, one in orange that looks like an / angry primate under the mutli-colored large leaf. I perceive what appears to be an alien figure entering the photograph on the lower left and a woman’s face on the upper left. There are many icons in this piece and I am interested in what what you see. / Please view this in the large format.

At around 11 PM at night :) A beautiful autumn scene. PLEASE HELP: I AM NOT SURE IF MY MONITOR IS CORRECTLY DISPLAYING THIS IMAGE: THE TWO HELICOPTERS THINGS SHOULD BE SLIGHTLY PINK, MOSTLY RED . THE REST SHOULD BE AN ORANGY-YELLOW COLOR. IF YOU ARE VIEWING IT LIKE THIS OR OTHERWISE COULD YOU PLEASE TELL ME? THANK YOU!
This was a photograph of a maple seedling that was taking root in my yard. It always amazes me how quickly these seedlings attach themselves to the earth and grow before you even notice them. Sadly I had to take it down but I took many photographs of it first…................it was so perfect in its early stages of life.
I have no idea what kind of plant these leaves came from as the whole plant was found in a dry river bed that had been dry for a long time. The plant itself was nearly black. / I can’t get over the intricacy…..... / / / Copyright Notice: / All images are the property of ©Leah Highland and may not be used wholly or in part without the prior written permission by email, including copying, duplicating, manipulating, printing, / publishing (even on a web site), reproducing, storing, or transmitting by any means.

Frangipani leaf / Nikon D70, Nikon 60mm 2.8f macro
I know, “it’s just a leaf”... but in my mind, this is an amazing example of the new life that is born in the spring. This macro photo was captured with a Canon EOS 10D using a Canon EF 100mm f/2.8 USM Macro prime lens. The shutter speed was 1/60th sec at f/4. The camera’s ISO was set to 400. A Canon MR-14 Macro Ring Lite flash was mounted on the lens and used in Auto Mode #3. A Manfrotto tripod was used with a remote shutter release.

Clematis from the Greek (klema) for branchlet. / There are over 400 wild varieties of native clematis, in fact most countries in the temperate regions of the northern hemisphere and to some extent in the southern hemisphere have species of clematis. For example, C. alpina is found in eastern Europe and C. cirrhosa in Mediterranean countries, C. vitalba in Britain, C. montana in India, C. lanuginosa in China, C. patens in Japan, C. aristata in Australia, C. afoliata in New Zealand and C. virginiana in America / Early plant collectors brought examples back to europe, which were soon to enrich it’s flora. One of the first to be introduced to England was C. viticella, which was brought from Spain in 1569. This was followed in 1596 by three other European species, C. cirrhosa, C. integrifolia and C. flammula. They were all used in hybridising programmes to produce new varieties. It was not until the 19th century that the stock for the large flowered clematis, which is so admired today was introduced from China, C. lanuginosa for example and C. patens from Japan. The Victorians took to clematis in a big way and the pioneering nursery of Jackmans once held a list of 343. Unfortunately the then little understood disease wilt, decimated the commercial stocks and it was not until after the second world war that nurseries were once more able to pursue serious large scale propagation. However the legacy of the Victorians does live on, many of the popular large flowered clematis available today come from the last century. /
Taken at H.B. VAN DUZER FOREST Along Highway 18, there’s a place to pull off, stretch your legs and enjoy a spot of lunch amid a captivating ancient forest. If the time is right, get ready for some exciting wildlife viewing. A weekday would be the most peaceful, and give you a chance to discover the old growth Douglas-fir trees along the Salmon River. Stay alert for salmon, deer and Roosevelt elk. Exactly one mile east of the park entrance is a pull-out with a short trail leading to a swimming hole beneath more ancient trees.
