I LOVE TO TAKE PHOTOS: MY GREEN LEAF PHOTOGRAPHY

Hello everyone. I hope you are all doing great, and enjoying the contests being organized here.
The community has also being organizing interneting and educational contest for it members. Which has been helping me learning with getting to know new things and ideas out there. This contest about Photography is an interesting one. Photography is one of the mordern art that i am really passionate about. That is i enjoy seeing pictures or photos of things around me. The photos of things around us looks good and charming when they are taken with our camera or cell phones. Per what the contest is asking us do, i decided to take some photos of some green leaves around me.
As humans we all know how important leaves are to us. Not just for we humans only but also other living creatures too. The importance of leaves extends in so many ways.

BELOW ARE THE PHOTOS OF THE LEAVES I TOOK

The first image was an Okra leaf. It was being planted with different other plants too. The type of farming is a mixed farming.
Okra is an edible seed of a flowering plant. It is a very important type of plant which has health benefits to us humans.

FUNCTIONS OF THE OKRA LEAF

• It is basically enriched with vitamins that supports the immune system and increases the rate at which our blood clot when get injured.

• It is also enriched in antioxidants that help reduce or fight against illness like stroke and cancer in our body

• It also helps in reducing the sugar level in our system.

• It contains folate which when taken by a pregnant woman helps reduce the chances of a festus getting neural tube defects. This kind of defects has to do with the festus brain and spine.

THE NEXT LEAF WAS A MILLET AND A MAIZE

As i earlier stated there where all planted at one place. The maize plant is a plant which produces corn. The millet is also a plant which looks exactly just as the maize plant. Both of them are cereal crops. The millet plant doesn't produce corns, it rather produces a cluster of seeds. They are both nutritional and has a lot of benefits to humans. The maize plant precisely has being used as a major source of food for humans for about hundreds of years now.

FUNCTIONS OF THE MAIZE AND MILLET LEAF

• The maize plant is one of the food that can be feed to a human at any stage of grow. Which makes it very important among all other plants.

• Due to the fast and easy way it grows within a particular geographical area, it makes it easy for people to farm and cultivate them, as well as sell them for income.

• Millet contains a lot of fibre in it, which helps to speed up the rate of digestion in humans and animals as well.

• Millet contains potassium which support a proper functioning of the human heart and kidney.

In conclusion, leaves are important to living organisms. Even though we us humans not not be using all plants or leaves for medicinal purposes or food. That doesn't guarantee us that the other are useless. We have to know that we are not the only living organisms that utilize plants. So we need to protect them all.

I would like to invite @kodua,@mewow and @five5 to participate in this contest
