Very well done Jackie,
This is really nice. The earth tones are very pleasing, and the placements of the leaves puts it together just like a puzzle...:) You have sharp details and good color rendition...congrats and good show...:cool:

Jackie - I very much like the idea for this image, the colors, the detail.
I have a couple of problems though. The cutoff leaf at the bottom center distracts. The second area that is troubling (at least on my monitor) is the yellow leaf atop of the green at the center left. I think the yellow leaf should look like it is above the green leaf, but it doesn't. The two leaves seem to blend into the same plane. I have no idea why.

Gail,
Thank You for your detailed reply. I do agree about the leaf on the bottom being distracting. The leaf at the top the tip of the yellow leaf is curling backward and thus overlapping in the plane with the green leaf. Very observant.
