This Coleus plant, upon closer inspection, has reminders of islands and atolls, and tributaries flowing through the leaves. One leaf folded back gracefully to allow entry within to find the secrets that are said to be held on the island of Molokai.
Treasures from the ocean, washed up on shore; grapes from the gods of the deep?
iPhone 6Plus, edited in filters from Camera+ and PicMonkey, and the second photo edit in a new app I’ve found rather fun, Prisma.
Have a visit over at Lens and Pens by Sally for more macro photography

Angeline your image of the coleus is an abstraction of nature, and yet a seeming commentary on life in its beginnings. The close up gives us much to contemplate. Lovely… Happy Photo Challenge.
