Close-up shot of red lettuce with scalloped leaves reflecting sunlight.
An outdoor daytime close up view looking down at a mound of red leaf lettuce. The color is a rich light maroon hue. The leaves are not large. They are heavily scalloped and curled. The leaves are almost sparkling as they reflect the bright sunlight that is shining from the upper right. The sun is casting a short shadow to the lower left of the mound. The lettuce is planted in a dark brown finely chipped wood mulch and dirt. There is one dried upside down leaf to the right of the lettuce mound. It is pointing down. A shadow is in the very bottom right corner. Another shadow with rounded corners is across the top center edge of the frame.
