Spiral - a photo on Flickriver

Spiral

            I expect there may be many images of snail shells for this theme, so decided to give my snails a rest this week and photograph my cycad house plant that has just put up a few new leaves - all the tiny 'leaflets' have coiled ends when they first appear that will straighten as the leaf grows. On this particular leaf, one of the little leaflets has grown a bit ahead of the others and shown off the lovely details of its coiled end.

For Macro Mondays theme 'Spiral'.

The image was done as a 5-shot focus stack at f3.5, focusing on the tight coil which was 1cm across.
