Another from Acadia National Park a few weeks back. I liked the arrangement of these big toothed aspen leaves floating in a pool of water. Thanks for looking.

Very nice shot. The water drops really add some nice points of interest in this pleasant arrangement.

Gorgeous Kurt. The raindrops, the detail in the leaves, and the dark rendition of the water are superb. What a find. Love it.

I love images like this that focus on the small details, albeit not necessarily on a macro level. A fun image to study for sure.

I'm not sure whether you meant the leaves were arranged this way naturally, but especially if that's what you meant this is something beautiful for you to have seen and captured this way. Even if that's not what you meant it's still really, really nice.

Great eye to see this and the comp is very effective! All the lines bring you to the center. And the one yellow leaf is the perfect accent. Excellent work! :toast:

Unusual take Kurt. I like the originality, composition, and processing. No recommendations except maybe try also in B & W.
