Acer Leaf

I don't know why I have opted for black and white over the glorious red colour - maybe just mood reflective?

So simple and beautiful... light and texture!

[MoyaC]

Fav! I love this

[Sue]

Lovely. So simple with the plain background and lots of negative space.

[~*~ Jo ~*~]

Beautiful shot fav!

[Corinne]

Very nice

[Pat Knowles]

This would be good in either but more original like this....beautiful tones!

[Rosie Kerr]

Great tones and cool use of negative space. This is very pretty on black - the details really pop.

[~~JT]

wonderfully strong composition. i like it in b&w, too!

[Tracy Meurs]

great shot. I like the negative space as well.

[Graeme Stevens]

Excellent, great use of space

[Ingrid]

I really like the composition and the B&W highlights that I think...

[David]

Very elegant - I love the way the structure can clearly be seen. B/w facilitates this I think. Red is red…. nice though it is, it can distract … make the eye stop there so it's harder to look more deeply. You knew this really, which is why you have done this in b/w! I'm done with colour, except from time to time to show how superficial it is! :-)

[Margaret Tryon]

I love it.

[Debs Stott]

I really like this (spotted on the PP) and I think b&w brings out the detail and shape more, so good choice. Fav and follow.

[Kristina Olsen]

pretty!

[Carol Wiseman]

Glad you opted for b&w - this is a celebration of shape and structure.

[Annie D]

I like the b&w it accentuates the lines and shape

[Dee L.]

FAV. Just lovely.

[☯ Sarah ☁]

Love the B&W & the clean background really shows up the leaf :)

[Skip Tribby - ​🖖]

I love the detail in the leaf and the pure white background!

[Cathrine Mitchell]

Outstanding composition especially in b&w. FAV
