Rather ambitious of Coleus but the effect is great. Beautiful colours and a suitable framing make this a lovely presentation.

Oh the drama of the deep burgundy and the peridot green in the wonderful light! This is fantastic. I am a coleus lover and this is fabulous! The leaves look like velvet and it does resemble a butterfly.

You will be led to the knowledge of the internal things which are invisible to you, by the external things which you see before you. . . . Even so then, we can represent to ourselves in thought the Author of all that is, by contemplating and admiring the (visible) things which He has made, and ever brings into being. - Hermes

I love all the varieties of colors you get when you raise a coleus..or would that be colei? Anyway, this is super, and I've already had her in the voting booth. Since you don't like to know what people did in there, I won't tell you :P

Gorgeous colors--the green looks fluorescent. I would love to see a butterfly that color.

A wonderful scene's been captured here. The deep saturation and strong contrast are very pleasing. You've done justice to this beautiful plant.

Brilliant. This is some of the best focus and color I have seen. I do not c are for the green border since the petals are already laced in green. The image overall is excellent.

I *LOVE* Coleus. Not just their beauty, but they make an amazing tea as well. I had several plants at one time. In order to keep them growing larger, pinch off their buds, or they'll receed.
