Sumac New Leaves
These new leaves are from the same sumac as the previous image. While I do have a couple of small nites with this image overall I like it. The color and graphic lines make this a nice photo for me. Comments welcome and thanks for looking!

I like your comp on this one David. The radial pattern leads my eye around the frame, but I think I would like to have seen the tip of the leaf at the bottom. I might have also gone for a little more DOF here too, but this still works pretty well. Thanks for the post!

Bill,
I agree with you, same two little nits I have with the image. With a little more time I think I could have done much better. :smile:

David - I agree with the Bill's criticism, but still find the picture enjoyable. Thanks for posting!.

David, you really are dialing in some oof backgrounds on your floral shots lately, well done. I will echo Bill's sentiments on the dof and subject position. Thanks for posting, it's nice to see your work!

Tim and Wayne thanks for the comments, even with the two nits I just like looking at this one.
