I came across this beautiful specimen in the botanical garden in Tokyo. The deep black color immediately attracted me to this plant. The sign told me that it was the Pilea Involucrata. The friendship plant. How beautiful is that.
This photo has a certain abstractness to it and that is mainly because of the huge density of leaves. Normally you would have to zoom in much more to get minimalist images (macro photography) but here the many leaves, the great contrast between the bright green and the deep black and the scale-like texture of the leaves give a serene image.
