I especially like this one. It’s like a jewel in a setting—and it’s good to know that all this iridescence is not from a chemical spill.

I’m glad you like it, Larry. I have often thought that these iridescent films look like opals. And isn’t it a relief to know that the films are works of nature and not the result of pollution.

A very attractive composition, Linda, and I’m so glad you left the leaf in situ

Thank you, Andy. That green leaf adds something, doesn’t it. Not so fond of the brown one, though.

Ah, this is a beauty! A classic! Those strong angles, that leaf,and of course, the iridescence, all harmonizing together.

Thank you, Lynn. The neutral-color mud-covered shale makes a good backdrop—or as Larry called it above, a setting.
