Description A fortune from a fortune cookie meets a small plant in the dirt.
Taken with my macro lens, edited.


Alright, so I have a potted plant, and its a good size. (His name is Theodore, if you are wondering.) Its sort of like a single, leafy vine. But one day, while watering it, I noticed this tiny little thing. Well, of course, I had to get a shot of it, cute as I found it. And he was my new friend.

That is, until my mom came in and killed it with a single pinch. Now my vine has no friends. Quite a tragic tale, really.

She pinched it and pulled. It never stood a chance.

Well, Theodore, the vine plant, is quite the jealous type.

Yes, it seems like vine plants are like that. My cactus never had such problems.
And he likes to think he is, anyway.

Now that is a fantastic idea. I love object macro and nature, and to combine the two in such an origional way makes this photo perfect.

Thank you so much for sharing it with me!

I really love this. It strikes me as very interpretive, I think it can speak on a personal level about friends or even a global level about environmental protection. Very awesome work
