Very clean, striking and smart. Image seems a touch soft in places. I like it though.

Ooo... you're braver than me to handle these hell plants! You receive one extra point for doing this. Nice job on lighting..

I almost went looking for a poison oak plant for this challenge; but it wouldn't have looked as good as this one. I like the crop and the mirror-image symmetry of the lower leaves.

A little soft on the right side, but great color and composition. Looks backlit (and well). I hope your 'exposure' was limited to the photography. ;-)

Great colors and background. the right leaf is a touch less in focus than the rest, and the eye is drawn more to it because it is brighter. Nice work. 8

Stunning clarity and colors. I think I may have liked a less tight crop possibly.

Poison ivy or not - what a tempting seductress! PERFET lighting and background! The only (minor) complaint I have is the tight cropping. Hey - it's only a few pixels - so overall it's still destined for a ribbon!

I like the lighting you have used on this. Also, the simiplicity between the solid background and the green leaves is nice. The focus looks a touch grainy to me, like it was brightened in post processing, or something. Not terribly bad, though. 7

Good macro details although some of the details along the edges of the leaves are lost and blurred. Lighting is different but I like it.
