A super macro of a bird of paradise leaf. What looks like noise in each compartment are actually chloroplasts (similar to "mini-cells" or organelles). I just like the fact that it looks alomost microscopic, but other than that it's nothing special.

Love the uniform dof. Built just like a brick wall.

It's a nice macro, very clear. Interesting pattern when one looks this close. Nice.

Wow! I have bird of paradise plants, including giant birds of paradise that grew up about 20 feet, but I never noticed this pattern. I was guessing either some kind of green straw hat brim or an airlane photo of a whole bunch of lawns up against each other. Excellent capture. Now I'll have to check out my plants.

This one it is very nice - at first I thought it is some green cotton thread...
