You know, now that you mention it, I'm having some issues with my toenails... jk Ah, the picture. I am a fan, I like the contrast betweent he light and the shadows, although I think it would have been better if the upper boards weren't quite so overexposed. The dish with the lillies is very appealing to the eye, due to the way the light sits on the rim, not defining the whole thing, but showing enough for us to see what it is. In fact, this entire shot is a great study in light, and is well done. I find it easy to just sit here and study this shot - it's the type I'd be inclined to order a print of.

the harsh processing nicely contrasts with the delicate main subject.

I like the strong lines in this picture. I also like the texture, It almost looks like the leaf is in water.

Nice black and white!! I like the light and the tight crop. Maybe just a smidge too dark overall.

Very interesting, hardlly the most original shot in the bunch but I like the outcome, especially the mysterious glow behind the leaf and the fact that it´s all green. Nice work, one of the best in the challenge.
