This looks like some fancy SEP work here, or at least something I'm unable to replicate. Excellent tones and light values throughout. Makes the image. Nice.

Not as Weston as many of the other entries I've seen. Much less derivative. However. That Weston inspired you to do something equally good but totally unique is enough for me.

Comment by DiscoVader:
The texture is fantastic. Based on my read of Weston though, I don't think this hits it. I think Weston is more obsessed by form, motion, and tends towards the abstract. There is practically an X in the center of a circle on this subject at your angle, the form does not suggest motion at all, and the subject does not come off as abstract. Instead it is very matter of fact. Doing a cross section or pulling off a leaf and shooting more tightly cropped I think would really help.

Fabulous texture well lit. I find the shadow split a little distracting.
