All of earth is crammed with heaven And every bush aflame with God But only those who see take off their shoes. - Elizabeth Barrett Browning<p>

THE CAMERA'S ONLY JOB is to get out of the way of making photographs. It's entirely an artist's eye, patience, and skill that makes an image. ~Ken Rockwell VISIT MY GALLERY
I love coleus plants and have them in my garden from time to time. They come in such a wonderful variety of colors and even though I know you added a bit of blue here, it adds rather than detracts Lovely job on the framing as well !! :)
"The artist is a receptacle for emotions that come from all over the place; from the sky, from the earth, from a scrap of paper, from a passing shape, from a spider’s web." Pablo Picasso
This is great! I love coleus and you have done a wonderful job of posting it. I never would have known how to go about doing such a lovely job of framing. Another splendid post for the day!
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.

I really like the way this turned out, Mariana! You took a simple plant and made it a star. The tiny purple flowers underneath the coleus are a very nice bonus and give a beautiful depth to the image. Nicely done!
