    Kostas,

    Greeting. Good looking color. Something unsettling about the composition to my eye. Maybe the leaf seems on its side? Too much room on the left? Can't put my finger on it.

    Cheers,

    -Michael-

    Hi Kostas, another nice image with the macro lens - good detail, contrast, and color. I agree with Michael regarding the composition, I think there are just too many strong elements competing for the eye. It might work better as a vertical. Nice to see you posting here. I seriously want to come visit you some day...

    Kostas,

    Interesting but looks too planned almost staged. The frame seems unbalanced, but I like what you are trying to do. I recently saw a B&W picture by a street photographer of a single piece of trash blowing down the streets of NY; it was very compelling IMO. The point is, regarding elements either they go together or simple and balanced..keep em coming you are on the right track here!
