Very nice. I like how the thin border is in proportion to the veins on the leaf. Interesting visuals created by the negative space. 9

Good use of DOF. This might be even better if the cigarette we angled diagonally across the frame. Outstanding image.

What a perfect leaf! And the cropping is well done except and this is nitpicky, the lower left point of the leaf looks like it got cut off. I know, I know, I'm sorry but the line on the leaf keeps drawing me there and with the others cropped so perfectly it just kinda jumps at me. I love the stark background really brings out the color of the leaf. I'm starting this at an 8 and I'll be back to see if that little point still gets to me or not.

Okay, I'm back and now that I look again, it's not really cut off at all, it's cropped really, really close! :) Raising this to a 10!

This is beautiful. The simplicity of the leaf against the white background and the complexity of the veins in the leaf make it an awesome shot.

Very good idea, althoung I hate smoking, it does not influence me in giving ponints. Quite shocking facts, and brilliant implementation of the challenge subject.

I like the perspective and the angle of view. But it doesn't really pop out at me. Part of this, for me, is that the cigarette almost seems to blend into the paper it sits on.

Nice pic but the focus is too far I think, this is a science though.
