Very different one here, Albert.......Nicely done........laugh Maybe just a bit more DOF on the FG area, but still will make a neat print IMO.....I like it.....enlightened

Very nice abstract macro of this leaf. Agree about the dof, but not a major distraction to me.

Albert, this image has both a good sense of flow and a great glow.  This looks very good as presented.  Since you used f/20, there not much more to be gained in dof.  It would need a 2 or 3 image stack to get the stem sharp.  How quickly we get spoiled by new technology...

Lovely, Albert.  The lighting is excellent and I really like all the details.  I'll have to work on this kind of image once the leaves start coming down this fall.
