Cool geometry and textures, Iain. I think the image might benefit by a little more separation of the main subject.

I really like the light and the feeling of "deep in the woods" here. I would like it better if the sprout on the left side were either all in focus or all more out-of-focus.

Iain:

Welcome to flora gallery!

Guess you like spirals as this geometric shape is also in your avatar

The image overall looks a little on the dim side to me. The fiddle head is all in focus but would be nice to see the entire stem in focus as well; not sure if this is possible to adjust your camera sensor to be parallel to the subject.

Look forward to seeing more of your posts in this gallery.

Without echoing the others, welcome to the flora gallery! This seems a bit dark to me.

Iain: Welcome to the finest Flora gallery on the planet and thanks for your first post here. This does look a bit underexposed to me and could use a bit more contrast but I like your comp. Really nice use of your long lens setup. Great to have you aboard and looking forward to more. >=))>
