Scalloped Leaf

I liked the edges on this leaf. I was going to leave it in color but black and white looked so much better. Speaking of black and white- Flash of Red February is rapidly approaching! I'd better start planning!

Like the sharp edges and nice textures

time flies so fast, when i thought about it last fall, flash of red february seemed so far in the future. now we just have 16 days. bring it on! although i'm running out of props and we're still on very strict lockdown.

Great lines and textures. It's difficult to grasp that Flash of Red is almost upon us again.

Wonderful details and dof.

B&W was a good decision. You really captured that wavy leaf edge, so sharp.

[eDorre]

Love the textures!

[Maggiemae]

Leaf edges are worth looking at - some are sharp and some are graceful curves!

Beautiful stark contrast in the photo. Choosing black-and-white was the perfect way to show this one.

Looking forward to February and the challenge as always

@summerfield I will keep that in mind as I plan!
