    Ed,
    I like the colors and arrangement. Would have liked the light coming from the opposite direction, so the shadow would provide better visual separation between the leaves along the left & bottom of the top leaf - the colors of the two are very similar there. Also would like a bit more space between the leaf tip at upper right and the edge of the frame.

    Nice color and details Ed. I agree with Chris about the bottom lighting,.....you could just flip the image to get top lighting.... :-)

    Also you might want to try to keep the main subject about 2/3rds of the frame at the most. Here is looks a little tight.

    Hey Ed, another overall nice image. I don't mind the tight crop, but if you view my images they tend to be tightly cropped also. The main leaf in my opinion is a little to decayed and would like to see leaves that are in a more pristine condition. Keep em coming.

    Chris, Robert, Mike,

    I thank you for the critiques. I really wanted a tight composition but maybe I went just a wee bit too tight. And I agree I could have moved a bit to the right and given the subject leaf just a smidgen more room to the right.

    Mike I understand the red leaf is a little ragged. I selected it for its color and texture even though it was a bit ragged.

    Again thank you all.
