Think ahead to spring showers...
Green, natural green, greens in nature, shapes in shadow and sunlight -
these are the elements that make up this original photograph of a saw
palmetto plant. The accordion-shaped leaves are dark green in shadow,
and brighter yellow green where the sunlight catches them. At the top of
the photo, a dry brown leaf from a different tree curls toward the
viewer, looking very three dimensional.
This floral pattern was created from an original photograph of yellow
orchids in afternoon sunlight. The orchid flowers have pale yellow
petals with redish purple centers. Their dark green stem winds it's way
up through the center of the blooms. The pastel background is a blend of
shades of pink and pale green. A few light green aloe leaves can be
seen in a corner. When the photo is combined to make the pattern, the
floral design becomes a garden of orchids with the pink glow of the
afternoon sun in the center.
Soft, and pastel colorful, this design is an original photograph of raindrops on a coral plant in the garden. The droplets dot the greenish beige trunk of the tree and the leaves, from the soft focus light green in the foreground to the reddish brown undersides in sharp focus. The orange colored railing behind the plant is also covered in raindrops. A stormy gray blue sky completes the tropical picture.
This abstract design was created from an original closeup photograph of
raindrops on a coral palm plant. The photo design is in sunny tropical
colors, bright yellow, pink, orange, terracotta, blue and white.
This abstract design is an original photograph of a banana leaf. It was
shot at close range, so to speak, focusing on the ribbing of the leaf as
it grows out from the center spine. The curving bands of light green
shift in color from yellow green in the shadows to a more blueish green
in the sunlight...
This is an original photograph of sea shells in sunlight and shadow. The
beautiful conch shells are in shades of white on the outside, with
pale, pinkish brown lines spiraling softly down from the top of the
shells. One shell's interior reveals its light salmon pink color, and we
can see hints of this color in some of the shadows. Other shadows have a
tint of blue.
This lovely lionfish is swimming in a colorful saltwater aquarium. This
original photograph is a closeup of the unusual looking fish, showing
its pattern of thick and thin stripes and fancy fins. It is a colorful
photo with tropical blues, yellows and pinks of the aquarium, and the
salmon pink nose of the fish.
This original photograph is a closeup of golden colored sea oats bending in the breeze. In the background is the ocean, in soft focus shades of pale gray blues and greens. A small wave approaches the muted brownish gray beach. The photo has a relaxed and beautiful coastal mood.
This original photograph is a closeup of the base of a very old Areca
Palm. We see a few dark green leaves and the spring green trunks with
their tan rings.

This is an original photograph of an areca palm bathed in sunlight. The photo focuses on one of the palm fronds, its light yellow green color standing out in front of the much darker green trees and bits of blue sky in the background. The sunlight blasts one side of the frond, obliterating details with its bright yellow color.
