Hi Alane: The warm color tones in the sand and leaf compliment each other perfectly. The low cross lighting from the upper right give the leaf good detail and texture, also the small amount of sand on the leaf makes it look authentic.   Posted: 09/06/2021 22:27:42

Hi Alane: Perfect.....composition, lighting, placement of subject in frame and focus. Amazing, what some (non-photographers) would just bypass while we, as photographers, find interest and appreciate the simple things in nature. The colors all work together nicely. Nice "catch".   Posted: 09/07/2021 14:02:21

Hi Alane,
Nice image. Textured leaf on textured sand worked well. You captured sharp details on the leaf. The lighting on the varied warm tones of the leaf create a perfect image.   Posted: 09/11/2021 10:57:50
