I love this shot. . The leaf is so beautiful. I love the background. Great impact and detail. The lighting is perfect, and the colors are so bright and vivid. You're focus is very crisp and sharp. Fantastic work!!!

Interesting and electric feeling, and I like the curtains (?) in the background with a hint of windows..so much depth added there, but done in a wonderful, subtle way. Colors are warm and lovely, and, there is motion as well. Donkeyoatey

I love the glow and flow of the b/g. This is a cool shot of the leaf. I like the electricity surrounding the leaf. Beautiful composition. Very nicely done.

Sometimes that is all it takes is Just one leaf, just one hand, just one kind gesture. Love the soft curtain like lighting rays beemin down, the aloe leafe which reminds me of a long and winding road that leads to YOUR door!
It is lovely and elegant and I see your wicked creativity all over this piece!
You are one who constantly amazes me. There are no words for the DEPTH of respect and love I have for you!

Super abstract in this rendering. The undulating leaf that moves over the frame and through the spectacular rays....beautiful . The composition is just great and the colour harmony is fabulous. The combination of hues of gold, brown and yellow- green- just gorgeous. This would make a great image to be displayed in a home.....great also commercially -. Love this. to carry an inspirational message

A very special idea for this topic - the line is amazing in form and way it is presented - your background enhancements is fantastic letting the leaf look like a street with an dead end - your color choice id exceptional and very harmonious in combination - super idea,handsome technique - all the best for the contest
