More on the Light
This Lady palm is my favorite. The sunlight really lights up these fronds, and the blocks of dark green where the leaves criss-cross makes for a very interesting photo.

Backlit photos are the best for showing leaf and plant detail, as you have so nicely illustrated.
Love just seeing the sunshine on this gloomy day here. This also reminds me I have a palm outside that I should bring in if it isn't too late.
Susan, Love the different leaves you've displayed here. The soft angle of our glorious sunlit days this time of year draws my eye to stare. My Ti plants are like bright lights in the front garden all afternoon. My lotus begonia flourishing not too far away from them. :-)
Isn't this weather absolutely divine? You probably have had some damage over in your area. Here, only some tinged tips of very tender plants that are fully exposed.
How cold have you gotten over in your neck of the woods?
Hope you had a wonderful Thanksgiving.
Blessings,
Meems
