I popped an LED torch under the leaves of my bathroom ivy plant. Then took the picture in our dark storage room. Lots of dud pictures but I thought these two had some nice effects with the veins in the leaves. I like the top photo the most.
If I find some more inspiration I might post some more pics. Is that OK to do more than one post for an assignment???

Oh Bindi that's so cool! The green is SO vivid and jewel like. You have a great imagination.
I was so terribly obvious with mine.
I really liked this assingment too!

I like the first one best too. The veins are really cool. There is a bit of a distracting colour in the top right corner of the second one for me which takes away from the leaves because I'm trying to figure out what it is.
I'm happy for you to post more!
One other thought was maybe if you didn't tell us how you set up the photo (lighting etc) it would leave us wondering about how you did it more? I don't know if that's a good thing? but sometimes mystery can be good, make it a bit more magical (like in Holly's ones?). Though, in this case (and on this blog) I am glad to know because then I can learn more and get more ideas...
Top corner of bottom picture is a part of the pot. I wondered if people would think it was my hand...
I go for full explanations on here because I want to know how everyone else does their photos too! I need as many new ways of taking photos as possible.
Great pictures! The lighting is very cool looking. You are very creative to come up with something like this, I love it!
The colour is great & I love the light that you used.
Did you use a tripod? It doesn't look as sharp as i would like! :) Maybe there was camera shake? I would love to see something like this as a close up too, with just the details in the leaves.
I'm happy for you to do more than one post too :D
That was the problem with most of the other pictures I took. Way too blurry. I will have to try again with our little tripod and see if I can make them sharper.
Yeah, its hard getting used to shooting in low light! I have heaps of blurry photos too :)
I love these photos too! I don't mind that they are not in focus either.
Even when you use a tripod the camera can still shake - with your hand pressing the button and with the shutter going off!! You could set the camera on a timer to go off after a few seconds - but I guess that still doesn't stop the shutter from shaking the camera, so it can be a bit tricky!
