Leaves? Genes? Stock!

Another sharp-eyed reader, Kevin Arthur of the fascinating Question Technology, has spotted another stock image breeding in the wild.

"Here is a trio that I just happened upon that use the same image of leaves," he says. "The last one is not a total match (it takes four of the five leaves and re-uses them -- I'm pretty sure they're the same leaves, though). The Walden edition I have a copy of and I think its design is excellent. The other two designs I don't much care for."
