Congratulations on this beautiful coleus making Finalist, Rich. I AM curious as to why the large raindrops are only on the green leaves.Stefania Barbier March 26, 2012
beautiful finalist, congratulations!!! #10056423Rich Young March 26, 2012
That's a good question Mary. The red leaves have a felt like texture so water doesn't bead up on that type of surface, it's more readily "absorbed". However, the green leaves have a waxy surface, much like a freshly waxed car. Hope that helps.Thanks for your comments Mary and Stefania! #10056920

What lies behind us and what lies before us are tiny matters compared to what lies within us.
Congratulations! Merna

Unavailable EXIF: If there is no other information but 'Unavailable' in the EXIF (meaning no EXIF data exists with the photo), the 'Unavailable' blurb is not displayed. If there is any info, it shows. Many photos have the EXIF stripped out when people modify the image and resave it, before uploading.
