An absolute belter of a picture! The texture is great, the lighting is spot on and the colour is so vibrant it dominates to exactly the right degree in my opinion. I even like the balance of the blue corner versus the black corner.
this is beautiful....great gorgeous greens and wonderful lighting and textures, the detail is magnificent. It is not the work of someone who is a bad photographer or gets bad scores. Comments are your feelings of someone else's work. You are entitled to them regardless of your own photographic abilities. As for scores, I get bad ones A LOT. You could drive a Mack truck through the margin of my scores in the two current challenges, LOL! Besides, you never know when you might comment something to someone that will make a big difference in their learning process.
Tremendous detail, color and texture. I like the composition and lighting. The only issue (and it's very minor) is the black bottom right corner vs the blue top left corner. I would have preferred the corners matching just for symmetry - but that's probably just me being a little nit picky. This gets one of my 10 votes this challenge.
If you had cropped the image a bit tighter on the left and right, you would have emphasized the image's abstract quality: it would have taken away all hints to determine where the leaf ends, thus creating much more impact. 8.
lovely color, only thing that takes away from the overall appeal of the images is the blue in the upper left corner, should have cropped it closer. nice image and texture.
A perfect exposure. There isn't anywhere on this image that could be said is under or overexposed. Well done. The clarity of this is spectacular as well. 10.
What lovely texture, colour, tone and lighting. The only possible slight downside might be the small triangle of blue in the top left corner, as far as I'm concerned.
This photo has wonderful texture and colour. The veins of the leaf lead the eyes out to all the various parts of the leaf. Nice lighting on this shot as well. Excellent work.
A very nicely done photo, especially for DPC. The color screams at you, some nice lines, great texture..
For me though, the subject matter is "same ol' same ol'" you know? I'm not voting on the challenge, so it's no biggie, but I like to mention my personal tastes too.
Natures wonder it's all there and free - but you have to observe them. Well done but I would have prefered it without the black lower right and blue upper left corners.
Great lighting and wonderful perspective on a good subject. I think it's a little too saturated. I kind of wish it were in black and white so that I could appreciate the subtle tones a little better.
Wow - such detail, so much green. This should do well with the voters (like me) who are currently facing a bleak colorless winter. I love the little bit of blue in the corner, it reminds me that this is a leaf, growing under the blue sky, ad not just an abstract of branching lines.
Nice translucent patterns. I would have taken a slight more closeup approach to remove the distracting background (top left and bottom right) and change slightly the back lighting to remove teh cast shadow of the stem and and brighten the center piece.
