I shot this tiny dead leaf (around 2cm) that fell on a marble table, where I was working this morning. I used the app camera+ on my iphone5.
I am joining Lens and Pens by Sally, who hosts each Monday the Sally D’s Mobile Photography Challenge. The schedule theme for this week’s challenge is: Macro
I am also submitting this photo to Mundane Monday Challenge from Trablogger. This is a challenge created to find beauty in almost everything. It has been mentioned by WordPress Dailypost as one of the Five Community Events for Photo Fans. Don’t miss it!
Love the softness feeling I get from watching these photos. Soothing and lovely )
Thank you Nilla. Such a simple and deaf leaf can still show so much beauty.
So true!
Lucile, I really like your set up and perspective on the first shot. Colors and details are made apparent and show the beauty of a single leaf. Happy Photo Challenge,
I’m so happy you like it. Thank you, Sally.

Beautiful little leaf; I like the reflection in the second photo. Nothing mundane about this, Lucile.
Thank you, Lois. Certainly you, are very special!
The texture of the leaf against the smooth marble is beautiful.
That really kept my attention and I had to shoot! Glad you like it!
Lucile:) Both of these photographs are great.. I love the detail in the veins of the dried leaf and its colors… The second one is cool due to the reflection of the leaf in the marble counter. Great shots!!!
Thank you so much, Lia! Hope all is well with you in the city!!
Have a beautiful day!
Lucile, I like the detail in the first and the angle of the shot in the second. Both are lovely and ask us to view a simple leaf in a different way.

Thank you, Janet. Just a simple leaf but very beautiful.
Lovely. Reflective surfaces can give such softness and beauty. Well done.
Thank you lovely! Xx
When you are a photography enthusiast and blogger, these kind of things happen. When a leaf falls, you take a picture and start to ponder over it and you end up finding newer perspectives. Glad you joined the MM challenge 🙂
Thanks for your kind words. It was about time to join! My pleasure.
You’re welcome 🙂
Lovely! I, too, like the detail of the first shot, Lucile
Thank you so much, Sue.
I love the softness of these shots and they are both so delicate! Beautiful.
Thank you so much, Debbie.
The texture and color here is lovely! And against what looks like a white granite table is perfect.
Thank you, Angeline!
That slides deliciously into your table! Beautiful, Lucile 🙂
Thanks much, we may have coffee and cake there! 😉
Simply beautiful
So unique, the shiny modern granite desk with a lifeless orange leaf as an adornment. Very cool, Lucile and wonderful capture!
Thank you so much, Terri!
The second photo reminds me of the Dolphins Photo that is on the side. The shape is strikingly similar and quite beautiful.
What an interesting observation! I haven’t thought about it but you’re right. And I love dolphins, as you may have noticed. Thank you so much for your kind comment.
I get a sense of elegance and softness from the first shot you shared. The detail captured in the leaf are very equisite indeed very beautiful. I must say I love the second shot you get traces of the grain from the marble and a stunning refelction adding another dimension to the leaf and the blurred background bringing more attention to the leaf itself. Very nice shot especially with a camera phone, haven’t exactly put mine to work yet.
Hi, this is a very considerate and insightful comment and I appreciate it very much.
Thank you!
