Youssef, these leaves really stand out agains the black background. I like the detail you captured in the leaves & the comp.

Great details in the leaves. This looks like a specimen shot for a natural history museum. Any problems getting these folks to pose so nicely?

Youssef:
Great lighting here to make these leaves looked like they are backlit.

Youssef: I think this has been a fine series and frankly I'm a bit disappointed with the lack of critical acclaim. Wonderful subjects with the subtle variations and perfect exposure. Very well done.>=))>
PS: This is obviously not a 4x5. What are you shooting with now?

Bill,
I still primarily photograph with the 4x5. But I also have a few DSLR cameras that I use when I lead workshops. A Canon D60 and 10 Canon D30's, and a Nikon D2x. These leaves and a couple more coming were taken with the D2x. Thanks so much for the feedback.
