Tiny leaf from a volunteer maple seedling growing next to one of the trees in my parents’ yardActual coloration is kinda subtle, not a huge difference between the red and the green, so I tried upping the brightness a little on the scan to see if that would look more like the real thing. It doesn’t and I like the painting better as it really is, but can I be bothered to go back downstairs and scan it again? I cannot.Also the leaf was, like, less than an inch in total length so trying to see where all the veins went was a ticket to Eyestrain City, LOL. You guys get to see it plain as day though. -- source link
