It’s houseplant macros today! I was trying to capture the new growth on my bamboo and ivy plants. The bamboo (first photo) is also being submitted for the challenge, six, because I was photographing a cluster of six leaves, although the shallow depth of field makes this hard to see.

Nice change to your blog. I like the new look. And the macros are great. I especially like the second one because it looks almost other-worldly. I like the monochrome of both.
