Never try to stretch an image's relevance to the challenge with a title. Subject doesn't hold my interest.

Beautiful photo, very pleasant composition, perhaps a touch more contrast would be good. The title is uninspired tho.

ummmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm shooting this kind of leaf doesn't work layered with the others and the tones are somewhat odd

This is a very pleasing shot. Love the color of the background and the clarity of the leaves up front.

Well, I see five "fingers" but I feel that there is nothing interesting in this photo for me. Good Luck

Altho I enjoy the tonal change I think a slightly less salmon pink tone would be more appealing for the background.

Is this a Japanese Maple, with naturally red leaves? I think it'd be cool to see it in green.

i generally like the composition here, but the background is definitely not working for me, and the primary subjects just seem to blend into the background too much--doesn't stand out enough.

wow, I'd really have liked to seen the green in the "sweetleaf" in contrast to the red light. Good offset comp.

I'm not a huge fan of the red color.
