This one is just for fun. I was playing around with different views of a tulip leaf and liked the design.

Beautiful macro and abstract at the same time... this green is so intense and DOF plays well its role... it really gives power to your picture. Thumbs up Anita !

Congratulations on your 100th post!

@Betty: Thanks, Betty. I didn't even notice. How did you know?
If this is "for fun" I can't wait to see when you get serious! :) Terrific. What I like about this is how the DOF and the line of the leaf draw us into the photo turning it from a two-dimensional image into a three-dimensional one. Very cool.

5 Stars !! Bravissimo.

@Suzanne Labbé: Thank you for visiting and commenting!
Very nice - did you add any post processing or is this how it came out of the camera? Wonderful composition (I like the strong diagonal element) and the colors are very "cool".

@Chris: Chris: Thanks! I always do some post processing because I shoot in RAW. On this one I did Levels, Color Balance (which I seldom use), Contrast, and Saturation.
Intriging abstract, done very well.

Picking up on your exchange with Chris: So you didn't crop it? Great eye!

@David: Ooops. I did crop it!
Lovely composition Anita, like the soft focus and DOF. Really like the tones in this one too.
