This is great Debi - Very simple yet effective. The droplets on the left and the couple in front highlight the image. Of course, the background is wonderful. jano

This was a leaf on the glass window of a car. The leaf does look a bit colourless here but looked fine is LR. I am changing it. Again K I find your version a bit too saturated. Debi

Basically, I only have been working on the leaf and didn't take care about background - I only was curious if I can do some enhancements on the leaf. But I would say that even with that background the pending one is more on my taste. It gives more feeling of the "after-rain-asphalt". I'm sorry, as I mentioned already - I found the original picture flat.

I agree with Konstantin that the leaf looks better sharpened slightly but I prefer your choice of background and the compostion is terrific!

It seems like Konstantin is a boots & all type of bloke as he doesn't seem to like the subtleties of nature. Here the leaf is the sole source of the picy & the road is subordinated to a non distracting backdrop but to bring all the detail out in the road like the one in Pending ruins the sensitivity I reckon.

Thanks for the feedback K. Could not find any thing in pending. Debi

Debi - what I love here are idea, creativity, composition and colors. What I think is not the best here are highlights clipping, missing sharpness on the leaf, too strong vignetting and a bit flat colors for my taste. I tried to correct these - please have a look in Pending. it's easier to show then to explain :-)
