This is delicate, sharp, and the light is good.
Only point : IMHO, this is too centered for a good 'reading' of the pic.
But apart the framing which could be improved, for me this is a very good image.

The shallow DOF was a good choice in the image, although the sharpness does fall off on the right part of the leaf. The light on the top left of the leaf is a bit harsh i would have recommend (in an ideal world) to diffuse the light a tad. The branch that the leaf is connected to is also a bit distracting. I would also have recommended to change your composition a bit. Other then that though great color and great detail.

wow..this is nice!!!! Great texture. Really cold feel to it. Good work!

how did you get that photo

cccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccccooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooollllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllll

Thx for your excellent critic MMeye and samccone. I will keep in mind this recommendations.

Thx for good comment. Deja67..With a macro lens and a lot of motivation. :)

Great colors and DoF. I love how the background approximates the color of the ice crystals on the leaf, making the photo cohesive.

This is a really great picture, it is almost perfect!

Nice and crisp with beautiful bokeh. I agree with some of the others. Take the subject off center and it will improve your composition alot.

I like this picture. Nice colors, sharp subject, good DOF.
But you should avoid centering the subject in your photo...

lumière et couleurs tout est parfait sauf le cadrage un peu trop centré

This image is so strong and the light and color so amazing, that it overcomes the problem of being centered - Wonderful shot!

Best,
Jon

Amazing details, light and colors...a bit too centered for me though, a great photo nevertheless :)
