In my travels this week, I ran into two nature scenes that caught my attention.
This leaf, outside of a coffee shop was the perfect “nature stamp.” A bit of rain and a slight breeze (to peel it from it’s image). I happened upon it at just the right time.
Then, as my friend Mary and I pulled up to the labyrinth site where we took a “Mary Birthday Walk”, we spied this spot of red-orange on the lawn near the gardens.
I thought it was one of those lawn ornaments that you buy at a garden store.
As I got closer, I realized that this was a HUGE mushroom (my picture doesn’t show you that it was about 7″x7″).
Here’s an aerial view. Wow. Looks like someone took a bite. Wasn’t me. Mary?
Mother nature, you sure do like to get our attention, don’t you?

I can’t stop looking at that leaf print. You should frame that – it’s a beautiful photo!! Did you use the Olympus I gave you?

The mushroom is so cool! It just needs some little plastic people or animals underneath to make a little scene for a story. I like your photos. They make me realize how many photograph opportunities are out there…if I’d just remember to take my camera with me more often.
Jessica, I don’t want to admit it. I took both shots with my iPhone and did the “enhancing” in iPhoto. I didn’t have the cool camera you “loaned” me in my car. OOPS!
Those are gorgeous..and yes…mama nature does great work! I was thinking..that leaf photo reminds me so much of one from one of Jessica’s photography classes. It sure belongs there anyway! (or hanging in a ….Gallery!
