Prayer Plant
Tuesday, January 17, 2006
Now I have started on the houseplants... These are the leaf markings on a prayer plant, so called because it folds its leaves up and together to conserve moisture when it gets too hot or dry.
edit to add - I didn't do any special processing or add any textures to this shot, basic PP steps were,
- Crop
- Auto curves
- Auto contrast
- Auto levels
- Cloning (a few dust spots that I hadn't blown off :\ )
- Very slight Hue/Sat adjustment
- USM
- Resize
- USM (very light)
- Save for web
Exif details were,
- 3 sec
- f8
- ISO 200

I love the patterns of light on this plant! It looks really neat and makes a cool abstract-ish shot.
very nice lines and curves. I like the textures here.
Lovely macro, an interesting plant.
Lovely colours and patterns. Nothing wrong with doing the house plants!
