Mother Nature is the best artist. I see it all the time.

Really interesting and quite beautiful pictures.

As you say nature is a great artist.

Bas.

Thanks for looking Bas. I even learn something every time I look closely like this. The red area on one side of the slice was the up side of the vine, facing the sunlight. So I suspect the red stuff is a pigment made by the plant to protect itself from sunburn. I never noticed that before. And all the larger rounded spots are just holes in the stem, to pass water and sugar to and from the leaf. They kind of look solid, but they aren't.

nice series mitch...

Thanks, I was quite surprised how beautiful something so common can be.

These are great Mitch...who would have ever thunk that a grapevine had all these designs and colors.

Thanks Sharon. They were a nice surprise to me too. I had no idea there was so much color in such a plain common object. Very beautiful to look at too, and wonder at how it all came together.

One word .. Beautiful!!

Thanks Freddy, I bet few people know who he is. LOL

They are beautiful. Surprised me no end. Now I am looking for other things to check out. I have some Lilac seeds I am about to slice up and see what they have to show.
