Very nice composition Harold.I like the palm leaves- if that's what they are on the lower right

[Harold Davis]

thanks OZ and denise. denise, i think those are some variety of caladium. believe it or not, they grow that big down here!!

[denise ippolito]

Wow. They are neat. I'd like to take a shot of just them sometime they are very interesting and appear to play off the light well.

[Julie Kenward]

Nice one Harold. We really have to get you an IR camera! The Caladium in the front has an odd gray to it - I can't decide if I love it or not but it is interesting to look at!

Harold,
Really nice; lots of texture and interesting shapes, and the grouping of tones gives it a layered look. I think a LCE (USM with small amount, large radius, zero threshold) would bring out more detail in the mid-tones.

Great photo. So much to keep the eye interested. Well balanced composition. I especially like the leaves in the foreground.
