I really like the idea here, and the wonderful lines and textures in the leaf !
The BG seems, to me, to compete a bit too much.
A clean, simple, light BG perhaps might set off the leaf better.

Love the detail in the leaf and the background Danny. Interesting scene..... almost like a leaf in a different universe! The apparent vinretting adds to that impresion.

Danny,

This photo appeals to me, and it's an interesting idea. Now I am going to have to experiment using a leaf on blacktop and then using the same leaf on concrete. Thanks for the idea and the photo project.

I like the vignette and the detail in the leaf. It has a real artsy feel to it.

Great looking photograph! I like the contrast of both color and texture here.
