Hey there from the Critique Club

Congrats on a well-deserved top 30 finish!

Camera Work/Technical: Simply amazing! The only thing this image suffered from was being in a free-study type of challenge with so many strong images. Your detail and crisp focus are terrific.

Lighting: Again, wonderful. I especially like the brightness along the bottom of the leaf. The works very well to add some pop to the subject, as well as isolate it even better from the background.

Composition/Content: No complaints. The stem works well to lead the viewer's eye into the leaf. then the veins take over, taking the eye throughout the frame.

My Opinion: This is a terrific image. In a more specific type of challenge, this would be a top 10 finisher. Your score only suffered because of so many top notch entries.

I really like the textures and colours. I think I would have preferred a closer shot so you filled the frame with the leaf and had no background.

I like this shot. I will be interested in how you achieved this with a single light source.

Interesting subject - love the details of the leaf. The light haloing along the bottom edge is a bit distracting but overall a good image
