I love the curve of the leaf stem back up over the leaf and how it's echoed by the curve of the tip of the leaf. And the serene water surface contrasts well with the textures and colours of the leaf. Adn that one water drop is good too.

Nice capture, the composition is well done. The blur at the top was a bit of a distraction.

Great photo and idea. I really like the one drop of water as well. There seems to be just a little too much fill light. Maybe if you toned it down a little, then it might pop a little more.

Interesting tribute to Irene's work. It can't be hers though. She would have not allowed the double reflection, nor the overesposing of the leaf. Still a nice image.
