Dogwood Leaves

Posted by Jen (Alpharetta, United States) on 20 April 2007 in Plant & Nature and Portfolio.

I know Dogwood Flowers are absolutely beautiful...but you have to admit the light against the leaves is quite lovely too.

I want to apologize for not really commenting or responding yesterday...I had oral surgery done and wasn't feeling well for most of the day.

I have uploaded some of my favorite images to redbubble for sale http://www.redbubble.com/people/jenseye
Please go check it out and if there is something you like in my portfolioi here on Am3 that isn't posted on redbubble please let me know and I can upload for purchase. Thank you!

I love the way these are lit. The detail is wonderful.

We are finally seeing signs of Srping. The sun is shining for the first time in about a week, and the temps are finally going to be warm. We've had such a cold and nasty couple of months here.

Stu from Kyoto, Japan

Hope you're OK jen! And by the looks of this shot you're fighting fit and clued-in. The quality of the light through the leaves is indeed most lovely.

Here's hoping for a speedy recovery!

These leaves are really pretty with the light through them! You get such great ideas. Got a dogwood just down from the Rhododendron big bush which is in the common area but actually grows outside my bedroom wall. Shucks! why didn't I think of that??!! Sorry I didn't comment on this yesterday, so didn't realize you were under the weather. Hope the mouth feels much better by now :)

@Anne: Thank you so much Anne!! I love to see the dogwood around your place!!
I am much better today, thank goodness!! : D Spring has finally sprung here and I am determined today to get out and get some new pictures!!!
