Yes, we have to be quick before the leaf miners do their dastardly work!
Beautiful
Beautiful light... WELL DONE
A fantastic capture!!
The lighting source really pops out the patterns and textures of the leaves, Helle. Sterling capture.
This is a wonderful, detailed photo of this leaf, Helle! Very lovely what nature creates for us to enjoy.
I've drawn chestnut leaves, but never knew they were 'chestnut' leaves. (I have a pitiful knowledge of botanical types, etc.) Your shot has lots of dark, and lots of light, and it's very dramatic because of it. And the ground seems right underneath the leaves because of your pov, even though I think the ground is a ways below. I also see water on the leaves? Yes? (Either that or you painted them with a glaze, lol.) Imagine telling the insects, "hey---you're ruining these leaves!" They'd shout back, "Lady? Get us some good food---which'll last for weeks---and we'll be happy to leave your leaves alone!" A burst of a shot, esp full size.
Superb capture Helle. God bless.
Such detail! My eye keeps going to the center, of course. It's like a physical pull!
