Superb work Bob. Great textures and interest in the image. I also like it as a vertical presentation.

This would be a wonderful here as well , I am always looking for them . Beautiful work, love the air bubbles in the ice and the contrast of the orange in the leaf. Lovely work!

good details in the ice and the trapped leaf is sharp. A little too busy for me but a fine image altogether.

Beautiful. Why did you crop off the end of the stem? Which fstop? Maybe too centered.

Wow, what a great find!. The bubbles in the ice are terrific. That combined with the rich colors in the leaf make for a very interesting image. My only suggestion would have been to include the entire stem but that's a minor point.

Bob, I love the atmosphere in this picture, the contrast warm/cold. For the satureted color and clarity, the leaf seems alive.
Take care.
