 I loved this challenge. Once I got shooting I had so many different ideas. Unfortunately I ran out of time, I had a really nice image but needed to reshoot for size. I haven't been around a lot lately, so no idea how this is going to do. whatever happens, I really enjoyed it.

Thank you all for comments and nice votes. The red dot irritates the living daylights out of me ... can't believe I didn't see it when I was working in it :-(. Should have contrasted the leaves more. The pods were tricky, because the highlights soon blew out which I tried to avoid. Thanks again for all your comments.

The beauty in death motif. I love the somber colors and the balanced composition. A brave, forthright image.

This fits the frame well. The red dot on the upper leaf/pod is a bit distracting, but I guess I am nitpicking with that.

Very good textures and shapes. I think I'd like it even better with a little more contrast. Also, you used the long, skinny aspect ratio really well.

The black background fits well with the crop. Nice I age. (Voted earlier)
