Heavy leaves (laser-cut from a 2cm-thick steel sheet)

Those heavy metal sheets are used sometimes in my hometown to surround the trees and protect the roots from car tires and pedestrian boots...

Sometimes a few cigarette butts and napkins get stuck (visible in the photo),  they get cleaned on a regular basis.

Thank you for the explanation.  Cool idea.  The same protection plates are used here in Tokyo, too, but they are just heavy metal grids.

Nice one Akira - that's a lonely looking leaf but a least it looks like its being brushed by sun spots once in a while :-)

Thank you, Lars, for your perfect interpretation!  I'm glad that you spotted the sun spots (no pun intended).

Thanks!

It is natural lighting, the plants were in a small pond under the shade, and there was indirect illumination from a very blue sky. The leaves seemed to be glowing with this light.
