Well, as you might know, I'm re-decorating my apartment right now.

I will be painting my bedroom light blue and I will have black shelves on the walls and hopefully a black reading chair (if I can find one!
) I bought nice paper lamps from IKEA, one of them will go on the floor, one on the bedside table. I'll also have a small shelve with candles. I'm really trying to create a peaceful look.

The other room (my kitchen / living room / office / stairs) is a nice natural looking green, with hardwood floors, white curtains, etc. I also have lots of houseplants to make it feel very natural.

I have some small frames to go in both rooms and I need pictures to put in them. I have a few family and vacation pics I can use, but I would like to have some simpler and more "artistic" pictures as well. Preferably pictures of nature. I know some of you are good photographs, so if you have nice pictures you wouldn't mind letting me use, I would really appreciate. My preference is for close-up shots of plants, bugs, rocks, etc. They can be in color or black and white.

They had some pics at IKEA, but I really would rather not have the same pics as everyone else.

Oh, that's pretty!
But since most of my pictures will be fairly small, I think close-ups would work better. Do you have close-ups of a frozen tree branch? A leaf with dew on it? or autumn leaves?

My hobby is taking close-ups of my little garden! I have a frightening amount. Here are a few...

They're all sized for the internet. If you want one, I can send it too you high resolution so it'll print better.

I selected the purple area only, feathered and copied to a new layer then made the bottom layer B&W in photoshop.

Some cameras can do it though, you click the button, focus on the colour you want to keep and then click again for your image
