Was intrigued with the structure of the leaf.

Bob:
Fabulous texture and lines on this B&W image. Good tonal range and contrast. I am a little unsure about the dark triangles in the RLC and LLC - wish for some texture there. Good as it is though with the curve at the base. Photography at its best.

Bob, for just a moment, I thought I was looking at B/W. Is it green or am I just seeing an expected color? Love the detail. Is it possible to pull out some of the lights are the top of the image?

Regards,

Carol

Superb conversion and vision Bob. This is one of those well crafted images that when seen you can almost feel. Super.

Very powerful image, Bob ! Wonderful contours and textures - with a superb b&w conversion. It reminds me of a satellite view of a river delta ( or something like that ! ) - it's the investing of just a single leaf with the sense of the majesty of nature that impresses me here.
