		| ah, so it WAS in fact a transparency... you pulled off the watery effect so well that I assumed it was being reflected in water! The illusion (created with transparency) was convincing enough that it didn't even look transparent. Funny how that works, I encountered the same problem with my submission. |

		| Oh man!  I love this -- I had no idea it was yours, and I missed it during voting!!!!  I can't believe it didn't score higher! |

		Returning for comments:
 I would have prefered a softer shadow, however, this is a nice subject and wonderful composition with tender shades of white on white that seem almost glacier like. It lends untold charm to the coloration of the leaf. |

		| I don't know what it is through which the leaf is being viewed and, without any frame of reference, the picture looks, on a first glance at least, just to be a blurry leaf. |

		| A little too sparse in the composition.  The picture isn't dynamic or exciting at all. |

		| Nice, simple composition. The leaf seems out if it's natural element - I keep thinking it's in a sink or bathtub. I do like the broken stem part though. That area of your photo is my favorite. |

		| Very captivating entry. Really hard to tell if the leaf is floating in water or not. Very appealing shot.10. |

		| ice or water?  I think I would have cropped a tad more off the bottom... its pretty that some of the green was still maintained in the leaf.. |
