Monochrome Leaf

I'd appreciate your input, thanks in advance.

I like the DOF and the preference for a non-standard-black backdrop (guess the leaf was still on the tree.) The detail is excellent and the composition I find very good. Also it looks as if the light was glancing the leaf which brings out the veins, very attractive.

 

There does seem to be one small area at the top where the leaf was out of focus.

beautiful shot Robert...wish I had this one hanging in my home. i suppose it is a little out of focus near the top...but maybe it was intentional? I think Dave was being thoughtful in pointing it out in case it wasn't. At my age and novice status, I've had people point out the same thing to me on shots that I either just didn't notice, or just couldn't see. great work! and I don't hesitate to rate this one.
