Magnolia leaf from the garden, after the rain, backlit (sunny), waterdrops on the other side of the leaf.

Nice detail. Would be nice also in natural color, I think--magnolias are a beautiful plant. Well done.

HI Ovidiu.....very nice diagonal composition! love the waterdrop highlights and the tonality throughout. Nice work!

Very nice indeed, I do like monochrome images...but this one leaves me thinking wow. I bet a colour version is nice.
Ovidiu I have been eagerly expecting some dew covered butterflies from you - what's happening?

Thanks for comments.
Jonathan, lot of wind lately, and rain..... just didnt happened to have good weather conditions when I had the time for searching butterflies... hope for some butterflies images...soon.

This is really cool, Ovidiu! I looked at the image before reading the specs and knew there was something really different going on here but I couldn't figure out what it was. The backlit drops on the other side of the leaf are really interesting! I think it looks great as a B&W! I like the slow change from light to dark but the URC feels a little too dark so if this were might, I'd lighten it up just a bit.
