chalice – an abstract of a fallen summer leaf

This photograph is of another leaf that fallen and dried from this hot, hot season. This is one of my more introspective photographs, a little quieter and contemplative. At first glance, the leaf itself is nothing special, just curled and brown and insignificant. But when I placed it under my lights, it just came to life. I really love the fragile edges containing its deep, rich glow.
