Did not try many times this kind of images, the young hosta leaves looked interesting to me and now I tried some images. Suggestions are very welcome!

Lovely! I like the beautiful curve, the simplicity of just two colors, the one area of sharp focus. The only change I'd like is to have the whites in the top 1/4 and the left 1/4 whiter. Thanks for sharing.

I agree with Anita that the composition and curl is lovely! I'd like to see the shadowed area inside the curl lifted in tone just a bit more. I like that there is a hint of color in the ULC and the LRC - I think it balances the curl very nicely. Way to step outside your box, Ovidiu!

Hi Ovidiu, I've tried photographing hostas before but never got anything near this good! :) Such a lovely soft feel and curving composition. Well done!

Hey Ovidiu, I like the flow and the lighting. Like the point of focus.
Well done.

Fantastic look and I could see this as a large print. I love the curved line and the colors.

Point of focus and curl is very nicely done Ovidiu! Very well though out on this one!

I can only echo what the others have said. A super image Ovidiu!:)
