Curled Up Ferns and Leaves

Congratulations on 1st place. This is absolutely stunning. I love how much detail you have captured, the feather like texture on the fern looks so soft. The lighting is also lovely. The highlights look so wonderful against the black background. Well done on such a great image.

Well done for making my top 10! I love how all the ferns stand tall with a curl at the end. The lighting is beautiful and you have created some lovely shadows and highlights. I also love how your image is just a mass of green. Well done.

Congratulations on being in my top 10! I love this image and I also love this leaf. What a wonderful plant with wonderful curls. I like thay you chose to photograph the plant coming from one corner of the frame to the other. This works so well with the plant being wide at one end and ending thinner. It has a beautiful depth of field too! Well done!

Congratulations on 3rd place! This is a great image of a curled leaf and I love that you have put this in black and white. I love all the little highlights capturing the tiny hairs on the leaf, and the tones are wonderful. The shape of the leaf also gives a great reflection. Well Done

Congratulations on 2nd Place. The reason I chose your image is because the fern stands out so wonderfully against the misty foggy background. The lighting is also beautiful and helps the browns and greens of the ferns stand out. I also love how each fern gives a different curl. Well done!
