Very nice red on red, looks good. I think I would have liked all or more of the front leaf in focus.

Beautiful colours, but compositionally ... probably not so good

So rich..... Great choice of narrow DOF and showing the leaf on the angle like this, instead of the more traditional front on approach.

what a beatiful shade of crimson-cranberry...or cranberry-crimson. Oh well, a made-0up color doesn't have to sound perfect, but you certainly made it look the part. good job
