I was headed back to the jeep after a long day of hiking and photographing when i happened upon a briar patch, of which i had seen many that day. All of the leaves in this particular patch had alread fell, except this one. It was calling my name..

Nikon D200, nikkor 70-300mm VR@200mm, f5.6@1/60, ISO 200

Thanks!

Justin: It takes a special eye to see an effective image of a less than optimal subject. We tend to always look for the pristine flower/leaf but you've shown here that even decay can be compelling. Good photography. >=))>

Justin:
A very interesting composition. I like the OOF branch and the painterly looking bg. The irregular shape of the leaf in various stage of decay is captivating. Good eye for seeing this and nice capture.
