Leaves

Lovely image! It intricately captures the transition between autumn to winter. I love the contrast between the vibrant hues of the leaf and the gray frost it is emerging from. Great attention to color and detail here, too. Well done!

Wow, great use of layers and lighting here to creatively interpret the theme! I love how you’ve used silhouettes to capture two kinds of leaves—one in shadow, and one in light. I appreciate seeing all of the texture in the larger leaf, too. Great job!

Great use of macro photography here! The image really transports us into the world of the cutter ants, and I can’t help but imagine a dialogue between the two insects as they encounter each other. Nice attention to color and lighting, as well. Well done!

So neat! Great job with perspective and color, which work well together here to abstract the autumn landscape. At first, the density and small size of the leaves makes me feel as though I am viewing a fuzzy, red-and-orange carpet, or even a pixelated image. Well done!
