This is a lovely shot!! Very creative and artistic. The cool green colour is very soothing. The calm water and reflection adds to that effect. This would be beautiful blown up large on the wall. Very well done, thanks for sharing

I didn't think an elephant ear could be made so unique, first thing I thought of was a green gondola, I love your imagination, very well done.

Purified, simplistic form, but realistic presentation. Your work is bold, strong and yet strangely soothing and calm.Overall a fine effort. Thanks for sharing! Good luck!

Simple but effective shot of this leaf sort of thinking outside the box in this i like its just green [a case of less is more] my only thought though it appears not to be pin sharp,any thoughts on that but saying that i don,t in this case think it matters to much...Brian

A good looking image posted here into the competition! Your fine, full and appropriate composition offers us an enjoyable view of that strange leaf. Colours, textures and tones are good. Exposure and sharpness are fine. Well done and good luck!

The simplicity of this image works well with the single curled leaf and water droplet. The grey of the background complements the subject perfectly. Great focus and clarity.

Simply lovely. As this is quite simple, yet so nicely done. It is nicely focused and crisp in color. The background muted to keep the attention on your focal point. Very creatively done.

Very different. I like the placement of this, with the lighting giving just enough shadow not to overpower it. Well done. Good luck in the contest.

Very nice entry for this contest, the eye immediately is drawn to the green leaf floating on the surface.
I like the diagonal placement of the leaf within the frame .
You have photographed it well with good focus, this image is clear, exposure is correct, the colors and tones appear natural, the way the leaf is curled , it almost looks like a small boat or raft floating on the water. I like the drop of water on it too!
Well composed and presented!

Nice to see that you are back posting your work Soulfeeder. Started to think that you had left us. I like this entry into this contest most of all because of the simplicity and the limited color pallet. I also like the fine shine in the dark water and the droplet on the leaf.

The photo is also sharp with clear details, and the drop of water is standing out well defined. The exposure is perfect.

The format and framing is perfect, and I like the diagonal placement of the leaf. It is a lovely and well taken photo with a very good DOF, and I wish you luck with the contest.
