Looks really cool. I love high contrast shots, and this one really took the treatment superbly. |

Loving the high contrast!! It definitely looks like the leaves were spattered with paint. Composition works nicely too, very nice! |

From the thumbnail I had no idea what this was. Thought it might be a vertical tree shot or building shot.
Very interesting pattern in those leaves. Well seen, captured, and processed! |

Very nice contrast, and yes, the subject does work well in black & white. However, the center of your picture and focal point is where the leaves attach to the stem - virtually no interest. This makes the crop in the middle of the leaves also problematic. You might try a crop of this where it focuses on a single leaf. Your DOF on this shot leaves the leaves in the background blurry, but because they also have the strong pattern, they become a distraction rather than an asset. |

Great contrast on the leaves. You might consider cloning out the less well-defined gray areas in upper corners. |
